Merging

If any of you have dug through the archives recently you may have noticed some new posts sprinkled in throughout. That’s because I’ve been keeping a separate family blog for a few years now and I have recently decided to merge the two.

I’ve never really sat down and decided on a future for The Modern Home. We started it to blog about building our house, but didn’t plan beyond that. After giving it some thought I’ve decided I would like it to be not just about our house, but about our home. I’ll still be posting all the details of our house and other design related topics, but I’ll also be sharing more daily life/family stuff. Personal posts make it on this blog every once in a while there will just be more of them. Plus, I like to share things like recipes and random bits on our personal blog. Those will now be included on The Modern Home. So I guess you could call this more of a lifestyle blog or a nesting blog… or both… or something… I don’t know.

Anywho, if you’d like, you can click back through and see all of the old Young Love posts from our personal site. They’re labeled under life for now. I’ll try to be more specific at some point.

Designing for a client today with a ridiculously long company name. Made me think of this:

Just popping in to say a quick hello. Hope you had a wonderful Thanksgiving. Our furniture is in storage so we had our Thanksgiving dinner on the floor. In our pajamas. Low-key for sure, but delicious. We’ve finally nailed our cheesecake recipe! (It only took 5 failed attempts. NY style cheesecake is hard to get right!)

I have so much to be thankful for. A loving husband. My precious boys. The blessing of the Gospel in our lives. And cheesecake. I’m thankful for that, too. We are so richly blessed. There is so much beauty in this world. Brad took this with his iphone during our trip. Do you see the mama dear and her baby? So sweet.

Guess what! I made up a little facebook page earlier today! That way if you forget to stop by and check in on us here and instead decide to go hang out on facebook (don’t worry… I’m not hurt by it… okay just a little…) you can still keep up with the happenings at the Modern Home. YAY! Now we can totally be besties and gossip and braid each others hair.

Or something like that.

So click here and go *like* the Modern Home!
