It’s been great! I think that Will has run his push toys into it a few times but for the most part, I think the visual barrier keeps him away. I’m not sure if it would be great for a dog because it is just decorative though

I’m wondering about the durability of that no dig fence you installed in the back yard? It’s been almost a year now. How has it held up? I’m considering fencing a small portion of my yard for a medium sized but very strong dog. I’m not sure if this fencing is a good idea or not. I worry if she jumps up on it I might be constantly putting it upright again. Would love to hear your thoughts.

Hi Bowers!

You’re home is absolutely ah-mazing! The size of your rooms is unbelievable. I can barely fit my king sized bed in my bedroom, much less a sitting area with a full couch.
Ah, the differences between Pacific Northwest homes and beautiful East Coast homes. (sigh) I’ll just live vicariously through you and your home.
Beautiful home and land to raise your two beautiful boys in. Can’t wait to see what other ideas and projects you have up your sleeves.
PS: Excited to meet your bestie tomorrow in Portland.

Thanks Lisa…the paint colors in our current home are not all known. The dining room was an oops paint (unknown) and the guest bath (the one with the red vanity) is Greige.
Hope this helps.

after just reading your “prayer” blog from 2010, was very pleased to read that the house you prayed about was awarded to you. He is faithful.

I use Feedburner…it’s a widget I believe that you can get through WordPress. Maybe they have a different way with different blog platforms?

Hi Bowers,
I’m switching over my design blog addiction to a new email and must be having a brain cramp! Can’t find appropriate link to sign up for email subscription. Please take pity on poor pitiful me and either submit my plea or let me know how to do it! Adore your writings and am having fun reliving my thirties w/ you/yours! blessings, Barbara Z.

Hey guys! Just came across this wonderful blog and am so impressed by it. Such a beautiful home and family, it is inspiring what you have created on many levels.

Question: What do you guys do in regards to your gutters? Unless I missed it, there is no mention on the entire blog about maintaining gutters or green gardening ideas such as Rainwater Harvesting.

Please visit our blog on Gutter Protection. We take tremendous pride in being the foremost educators in our industry. Keep up the great work, will be visiting

We definitely use most of the rooms in the top two floors (there is one that is a future nursery that doesn’t get much action and the reading room doesn’t get used much but other than that – we live in the rest of the house)…now the basement is an entirely different story. literally and figuratively. There are a handful of rooms down there that have gotten zero action.
