Reach The Beach

Last weekend Jeff participated in the Reach The Beach ride.  He, Lisa and Pete completed the 81 mile route.  I met them at the finish line in Pacific City after a leisurely day of shopping and eating in Lincoln City.

Headboards

I've been wanting to get a headboard for our bed for a really long time.  Since we have a three day weekend coming up, I'm hoping to find some time to go shopping.  I've been collecting pictures on my Pinterest board for inspiration.  Now I need to decided between a tufted headboard or one with nail heads, I love them both!  Here are a few of my favorites.

 I love this tufted headboard from Home Depot and I love the price

One of the blogs I read took an Instagram picture every single day for a month and then she posted the whole month in one blog post.  I thought it was a great idea.  Maybe I'll pick a month and try to do the same thing.  Here are some Instagram pictures I took in the month of April.

This last week Nate Berkus announced that he is doing a home collection with Target.  I'm thrilled!  Since we are losing Nate on television, I think it's so wrong his show is being cancelled, it's great to know he's not going too far.  His 150 piece home collection will debut in October.  I can't wait!!

Here's a few of the items, I'm excited to see more in the future.
