When nothing seems appropriate to post on Instagra

When nothing seems appropriate to post on Instagram, It means it is time to take a break. ⁣⁣ ⁣⁣ I also have no idea what to say. I want to have a voice because racism is never ok. But I feel there are so many others that can say it better than me. ⁣⁣ ⁣⁣ I will be taking a few days off from posting here as I spend the time listening to others. ⁣ ⁣ I want to learn from others how I can make a difference.

One year ago today was a very special day in our family. ⁣ ⁣ Charlotte @charcharsaeta joined our family when she married our oldest son Andrew @asaeta. When you marry your best friend a new life begins that is pretty amazing and fun. ⁣ ⁣ And that’s exactly what these two did. ⁣ ⁣ Swipe left and you will see that the fun began shortly after “I do”.⁣ ⁣ This was such a magical day for so many reasons. But I have to say that gaining @charcharsaeta as a daughter has been an absolute dream come true. ⁣ ⁣ Happy anniversary Andrew and Charlotte. I love you both with all of my heart.

This is the least shown room in our Waco home. ⁣

This is the least shown room in our Waco home. ⁣ ⁣ In fact I had an Airbnb inquiring yesterday from a follower that asked if we had a living room. ⁣ ⁣ I am not sure why I rarely show it. I really like it. And it is comfortable and I hang out here a lot while I stay at our house. ⁣ ⁣ This room is another example where I love to mix vintage and new. The coffee table, wall cabinet, sofa table on the right, and accessories are all vintage. I bought them at the Round Top vintage flea market. ⁣ ⁣ The other furniture, rug, and lamps are from Overstock. ⁣ ⁣ I love mixing old and new. It’s pretty much my design aesthetic.

I have been thinking a lot about what’s really been going on in the world. ⁣ ⁣ Not here in my home, our backyard, or in all of the pretty pictures I post. ⁣ ⁣ Things are really messed up right now. ⁣ ⁣ Our world has been shattered by the virus and now, with the recent events, our country is broken. ⁣ ⁣ It has to stop. We need love. Not hate. ⁣ ⁣ I am not sure who knows how to fix this. ⁣ But I do know it can start with each of us. ⁣ ⁣ Be kind. Love everyone. Talk to your kids. ⁣ ⁣ And tell those who can to fix that they need to stop this insanity now.

I love looking at photos of our Waco Airbnb. I can’t wait to go back there. Of course, I am just not sure when that will be. ⁣ ⁣ There is big news in Waco. @magnolia opens up again tomorrow. They are opening at 50% capacity but they are opening!⁣ ⁣ The last time I was in Waco was in March for Spring at the Silos. I was in town with some girlfriends and we were so excited!⁣ ⁣ Unfortunately Spring at the Silos was canceled the night before it was supposed to open. it was definitely something Chip and Joanna had to do. ⁣ ⁣ I will never forget how hard @magnolia tried to help the vendors who were supposed to sell at Spring at the Silos. They held an online sale and promoted everyone for weeks! I was so impressed with their efforts to help everyone. ⁣ ⁣ But I wasn’t surprised. That’s exactly what I thought Magnolia would do. Because that is how they do business. With heart. ⁣ ⁣ If you haven’t been to Waco you really should visit next time you are in Texas. The new @magnolianetwork and the expansion at The Magnolia Silos will hopefully be ready in the fall. ⁣ ⁣ Both are going to be amazing. I saw the preview of their shows for the network and they are so good! And Joanna has her own new cooking show.⁣ ⁣ Until then I will patiently await my return to Waco. ⁣ ⁣ And keep enjoying my photos. ⁣
