Just a British girl & an American boy.

Standing in front of an old stone house.

Asking it to love them. And not fall down.

This is the story of us, our home, our sarcasm and our daily misgivings.

The Tudor is our current restoration project: a 1929 architectural masterpiece that will be our ‘forever’ family home and one that will provide projects for decades to come. Although it looks like our home is in the middle of the English Cotswolds’, we’re based outside of Philly in the US. We fell in love with the quintessentially British façade and the incredible community that surrounds it.

Every week, you’ll find us taking on projects big and small in the attempt to bring this old lady, who we colloquially call Ginny, back to her glory days. In-depth stories, a couple who doesn’t take themselves very seriously and good old-fashioned honesty are all completely guaranteed. And if we ever completely finish a project, please check on Hell, it’s definitely getting a bit cold down there.
