D6 Update & More...

Life has been wonderfully hectic lately. I'm always one to have a project or two going on. It's what keeps life fun & exciting. This past weekend we had a camera crew in our home filming a promo video for a local real estate agent & friend of mine, Wendy Elder. They filmed for about 6 hours & interviewed two of Wendy's clients. It was a great time & a good excuse to get my house super clean which it rarely is these days with 4 precious kids.

Even our sweet little dog Fanta got interviewed! You see those nice newly planted bushes in the background? Those were dead bushes the day before & I couldn't stand the thought of them being filmed so we had them replaced & it's so nice to drive up to a nicely landscaped yard now!
Picture
I stayed up the night before the shoot after the kids were tucked in so I could clean everything. I requested they not come downstairs upon waking the next morning & they (mostly) obeyed.  We had to move a toy or two more before the filming started!

Fresh flowers & fruit made for a wonderful backdrop the day of the shoot.

D6 Retreat Update

Picture
We closed funding on the first round of our D6 Retreat & the kids (minus our oldest who was in school) came along to help us sign the docs! For the first round of D6 we are planning 4 luxury cabins all with their own kitchens, bathrooms & washer/dryers. Each one will have luxury mattresses & linens, a welcome box of fresh snacks & goodies & board games & activities to keep you busy if you choose to stay with us and "unplug" for a bit.

Anyone for a dip in the pool? Our pool also got started last week. We use an amazing pool builder. She built the pool at our home & is amazing to work with & always seems to bring my sketches & scribbled notes to life!

Speaking of coming to life, check out the amazing 3D video on our homepage (done by Mirko)! We're expecting the retreat to be open for summer guests. We'll be opening up our reservations very soon!  Follow us on Facebook for updates!

Behind the Teal Door...

We purchased this home in 2012 when we knew our family would be expanding once again. We lived here for one year & truly loved it- especially the concrete flooring & Austin stone. We built a custom pool with rock waterfall that the kids enjoyed splashing in on hot Texas summer days. We even tore down half the kitchen wall to open it up into the living room. When we moved, it was into a home closer to town & half the size. We decided to leave our furnishings and let others enjoy all of the things we had once enjoyed about this home. The Teal Door hosts dozens of guests from around the country each year for vacations, gatherings & family fun trips. We love hearing stories & reading reviews of guests that found this place to be a special one to them as well.

I remember planting this front garden when I was very pregnant with our third child. It was a lot of work but such a great spot that greets guests.

Yellow! I ❤️ it! I rescued this table & transformed it from a dark wood into a bright white/blue finish. I spray painted some old metal letters yellow to finish off the room!
Picture
The inviting Austin stone fireplace is decorated with a custom painted "Teal Door" canvas. What a fun room to relax & have guests over!

The antique chest next to the bed has been in our family for years. It's from 1912. I love the mix of modern (yellow chair) & old antique pieces.
