Based on the DM pet naming requests I’ve been fielding lately, many of you seem to be just as obsessed with pet names as we are. So today we’re rounding out our series with the last remaining category. We’ve shared posts full of ideas for girl dog names, girl cats names, and boy dog names – so last up we get to cover boy cats names! We’ve never owned a male cat together, but John has had two in his lifetime. His childhood cat Casper (named for his white coat) and his sister’s cat Monty (named for Montague Street in Brooklyn, where she lived at the time). So this list was a fun thought experiment, and who knows… with the way the universal cat distribution system works, we might end up with a male cat someday.
The 9 Best Greige Paint Colors (According To Experts)
“Greige” is that sweet spot between gray & beige, giving you a paint color that’s both trendy and timeless. In fact, we’ve been on the greige bandwagon for nearly 20 years – well before we’d even heard that term! But finding the perfect greige can be daunting. There are 100s of neutral paint colors that could be considered greige, so we’ve waded through dozens of expert round-ups to see what colors come up over and over again. Yes, I made a spreadsheet. And yes, I liked it. It’s no surprise that our favorite greige paint showed up on these lists. But the greige color that ranked #1 was a bit of a shock to us!
Boy Dog Names: 200 Names + Naming Tips
Naming our first dog “Hamburger” (aka “Burger,” seen below as a new puppy) back in 2006 officially kicked off our obsession with unique pet names.

But we recently returned to our first love with posts rounding up 200 Girl Dog Names and 200 Girl Cat Names. So naturally, we are back today to continue with 200 name ideas for a boy dog. We’ve got everything from popular human names to quirky food names and more…

Girl Dog Names: 200 Ideas + Naming Tips

So whether you’re looking for something creative & unique, or just cute & meaningful, here are 200 girl dog names along with tips to keep in mind when naming your fur baby.
5 Things We Loved On Our Family Vacation to Dallas, Texas
We’d never really thought of Dallas as a “vacation” destination, but there’s so much to do there that we barely scratched the surface on our recent trip! We ate lots of good food, explored fun neighborhoods, and found more kid-friendly activities than we had time for. So here’s a quick recap of some of our favorite Dallas destinations. Plus some things we want to come back and see next time!
Our Small Kitchen With Attached Living Area
I know a house always evolves to work with a family’s changing needs, but I’d say this kitchen and attached sitting area are as close to absolutely done as ever. In fact over the last two years they’ve held pretty steady – we did update the kitchen light to my dream chandelier that looks like bubbles at a beach sunset. And before that we finally settled on the right seating that fit perfectly into the seating area. But yeah, since then… settled! So it felt like it was finally time to share how it all turned out.
How To Use A Pressure Washer: A Beginner’s Guide

Pressure washing is an easy, affordable, and TOTALLY AWESOME way to keep your outdoor spaces looking clean and fresh. This is a comprehensive start-to-finish guide for anyone ready to get their pressure washing feet wet (maybe even literally). We’ll cover set-up, spraying tips, surfaces it works on, and more. Trust us, even we were intimidated the first time we tried pressure washing over 10 years ago. The cumbersome gas-powered machine we rented for a day was so big it didn’t even fit in our car! So I TOTALLY understand anyone with PWH (pressure washing hesitation). Our Favorite
A Weekend In Serenbe, Georgia
Serenbe is a small “New Urban” community about 45 minutes south of Atlanta in a rural town called Chattahoochee Hills. It’s sort of a mix of an upscale-feeling suburban development and an eco-conscious resort in the countryside. We recently took a 3-night trip with our kids and had a great time exploring, eating, and spending time in nature!
How To Make An Ikea Pax Wardrobe Look Built-In
Since our bedroom used to be a living space, it came with absolutely zero closet space. This was obviously a big downgrade from the fancy walk-in closet in our last house. BUT ALAS! Watch how we built in some floor-to-ceiling Ikea Pax wardrobes to create just as much storage as our last closet AND make them look like they’ve been there all along… For comparison, our last home’s walk-in closet was an 8′ x 6′ room. Each side had one 29″ wardrobe in the middle flanked by two 19″ wardrobes on each side. That’s 67″ of linear closet space along each wall, for a total of 134 inches. In this home, we used the exact
