Kathy's Home~ my sister.

    

When Mika and I went to Houston last week to visit Kathy my sister, I took picture...tons of pictures! Kathy and Pete live in Magnolia, Texas~ (we say we're going to Houston when we're going to Kathy's.) Today I'm going to show Kathy and Pete's front porch~  

Isn't this cute? It's a bed Kathy had made into a little settee...we sit on that swing and look at their horses...

This is where we go every morning~ I drink coffee and Kathy has a coke! = ) See that blue porch ceiling? LOVE IT!

Big wrap around porch...white wicker furniture everywhere.

Front door~ come in!

hello...this is a HUGE dog trot entry. All living spaces are off this space. On the first left is the living room. Go down to the next door~ you'll find a hall with two bedrooms and a guest bathroom. At the end of the hall on the left is the sun-room. That door you see goes to the back yard. On the first right of the dog trot is the kitchen/dining. The next door is a guest bath. The next door is the master bedroom/bath.

Tomorrow I'll show photos of Kathy's cottage kitchen! OMGOSH...It's so cute!!!!!!!

Love that porch setting! I am a huge fan of red and white and just love what she did there! I just wish my front porch was that big to fill up with goodies. Both of you have great ideas and great decorating.
Have a great day!
