Doesn't this gate look like it's out of a fairytale?
The whole house is like a fairytale! Allow me to introduce you to Lily and Kramer. They are well-behaved, non-barking, adorable dogs, and I seriously considered trading in my naughty Tucker who growls at everyone but me. (When I say seriously, what I mean is not seriously.)
I came in the side entrance which couldn't be more inviting and warm.
You know I love that green pottery!
The house flows so nicely and feels open and roomy. Everything is in it's place and there is no clutter of any kind. Definitely makes someone want to go home and pick up their home... put some things away. The family room goes through the kitchen to the living room...
I love the Carol Pettit painting with that red roof... She is a local artist and very popular in Omaha. You can see more of her paintings HERE.
Love the drama of a red powder room!
Behind the kitchen, family room, and living room is an expansive porch where I'm sure I would spend as much time as possible...
Betsy is literally the size of a teenage girl. She also has the energy of a teenage girl. (She's not a teenage girl but she sure looks like one!) Those dogs! I'm really jealous of her well-behaved dogs.
What a lovely home! Peaceful and charming and inviting... truly a perfect home for a darling family.

This home is charming. It has a nice mixtures of styles, textures and periods. It is very hard to mix it up, like the owner has done here, and make it work. I think she has done it well. Thanks for sharing. Richard from My Old Historic House.
You didn't know Betsy and she let you inside....you must be a charmer. It's a beautiful home and I like the layout. I'm with you I would spend all my time on the sun porch. Thank you to both and Betsy for giving us a look....love the landscaping.

Seriously, does she need an in house artist, I would paint those lucky little pooches who are adorable and of course the house, and tons of vignettes. What a lovely home full of charm. Thanks Betsy for allowing us to come in, not even take off our shoes and for sharing your home sweet home.
