These are my first sights of my new home in Middleburg, Virginia - though still a New Yorker at the center of my bone, it is magnificent.
The last time I stood in Middleburg, I was a junior rider here for the horse show. I am so pleased very little changes here.
Makes our move to DC familiar and safe.
Anyway, this is the kitchen: Through the back door. This entire portion of the structure is windows. Behind me here is the family room. Beautiful for the views. but did I tell you how many wall decor pieces came with us and how little storage they will have now? First problem...
The hunt room. I have not hung the drapes yet and the armoire was on its way to the family room. did you notice there are no moving boxes? Furniture relocation not withstanding, this whole place was unpacked when the girls and arrived. That is dedication.
Dinner: On the table when we pulled in. Could have been mutton for all I cared. It was a fabulous gesture. A lovely welcome. We had left Jax behind that morning and been sort of in the wind for four days while things were moved and unpacked. I was ready to be finished with the process.
Welcome to Middleburg, Darlings. This will be a predictably beautiful ride.

I think your new place is stunning and cannot wait to see how you make it your home! And Kudos to the husband for making the move easier on you!
Are those jars of baby food? How adorable. And love the new house.
Wow. Talk about getting off on the right foot.
Congratulations, much joy in your new home.
oh hooray! it looks idyllic. The Hunt room (like that) will be a perfect Hunt room when the curtains go up- Done & Done. Well done! G
Incredibly thoughtful. A keeper.
Love your new house...soon to be a home. Welcome to the South...you're gonna love it! :)
House envy rears it's ugly head - what a great place! Love that kitchen.
Congratulations on the new place! It's quite nice. Please keep us posted on its decor evolution. Thanks! :-)

What a beautiful home!
I've heard that Middleburg is lovely! So nice that it was super easy for you to settle in!
Your home is lovely and reminds me of a story book house. It's charming.
What a gorgeous house in my dream town! I think I might hate you a little. Now find a way to start riding again, and I'll really hate you.
BTW - I've discovered dressage lessons (even though it's on school horses) is an almost guilt-free way to rid yourself of the domesticity blues. I miss jumping, but I feel better having four feet on the ground for my kids' sake. Plus it's great for the traumatized midsection! I think I have abs again.
I am so excited to see more images of your beautiful new home!!
Is that thing with a tail in the hunt room a foot stool? Heavy covet on the kitchen. What I would give for a proper kitchen.
