HGTV Dream Bedroom

I'm not normally a huge fan of HGTV's decorating style, but when I came across their 2009 Dream House's Master Bedroom, I fell in love.

I love the vibrant green walls with the all-white bedding and furniture, which really pops. The paint color is Sherman Williams-Inland-SW 6452, and most all of the furnishings and accessories are from Ethan Allen.

My talented sister is starting up a photography business. She just invested in an amazing new camera and this weekend, while my family was visiting her in Dallas, she took some great photos of me and my lil' Winston. (I know, I know, I'm obsessed with my canine/sort-of human child). I'm sure I will post more about my sister's photography in the future, but check out these great photos.

Also, visit my sister's blog at lindsaysikesphotography.blogspot.com. If you live in the Dallas area, give her a call and she'll give you a great rate.

Speaking of Mr. Winston, he was a monster this weekend. When we're at home, he is a perfect little angel. He knows how to behave around new people, for sure. However, I think we failed to teach him how to act around other dogs. We had three dogs this weekend(my parent's dog- Riley, my sister's dog-McKenzie, and our dog-Winston) and Winston barked excessively ALL weekend! He never quit. Anyone have any tips about what to do about this little problem? Do we ignore him? Punish him? Get the newspaper out? (I can't bear to do that). I think my ears are still ringing and I hope he is invited back to Dallas, because right now I'm thinking he is not welcome. He's a really lousy houseguest. I guess I'll be enrolling him in a puppy kindergarten this week.
