Well, it's certainly hard to believe Christmas is already 1 week away. With as fast as the holidays have been approaching, I truly didn't even know if I'd have time to get around to doing a Christmas Home Tour post. But, as the fates would have it, my oldest daughter and I were unexpectedly thrown into quarantine this week after a potential … [Read more...]
Christmas is Coming! Holiday Home Tour
Wow, I can hardly believe how fast Christmas is already upon us! With the Thanksgiving holiday so late last month, it really did sneak up and here we are almost a week away from the big day. I pray that you are finding some time to stop and savor the season. This year it has definitely been a challenge with both me and my husband working in … [Read more...]
Merry Christmas From My Home to Yours
Happy Wednesday Friends! I'm over here scratching my head, trying to figure out how it could already possibly be one week away from Christmas? It seems every year it sneaks up on me faster and faster. I have tried to force myself to slow down and do a little less hustle and a little more intentional this month, which to be honest, has been … [Read more...]
Outdoor Christmas Porch
This has been the start of a strange winter here in Wisconsin. Once we hit October, we kind of skipped right over any sort of fall we had left and went straight into winter. Cold winter. Gray days. Cold winter, gray days, with no snow. (insert frowney face) If it's going to be 19 degrees and bleak outside at least let it be pretty with … [Read more...]
Free Baking Printable & Christmas Cookies
Well, it's officially the season for baking! I thought I would kick things off this month with a fun free printable that I created for the baking corner I have in my kitchen. All you need is an 8.5 x 11 frame and this ginger cutie will look great next to your spatulas and mixing bowls. I love putting on a Christmas movie in the living … [Read more...]
The Barn Wood Christmas Box
I have a slight obsession with big red barns - actually, I'm a fan of any ol' barn - but the red ones just sort of hit me right in the soft spot in my heart. I love the feeling you get walking into an old barn, the smell of the old wood, the beauty of the beams above you and the gorgeous light streaming in from all the cracks in the walls. … [Read more...]
I’m Dreaming of a White Kitchen
It's finally here! December 1st! That means the "official" countdown to Christmas has begun. While some of you may already have your trees up and the entire house decked out from top to bottom, I'm still playing a little catch up over here. We were gone traveling over Thanksgiving for 6 days, so I'm a bit behind on decking the halls. But I've … [Read more...]
Making a Home for the Holidays
Last weekend I had the opportunity to receive a pretty incredible Christmas gift early. I got to do something that I've literally dreamed of doing for the last 20 years. I got to go back home. Let me explain... When I was nearly 15 we moved from the only house I had ever known - the house I was born in, grew up in and never wanted to leave. It … [Read more...]
A Christmas Carol DIY Artwork
Hi friends! Remember me? The blogger who went MIA almost 2 weeks ago? I certainly had not intended on taking such a long hiatus from blogland, but alas, sometimes life happens and time slips away from us. We spent the first weekend in December traveling to visit some out-of-state family, meeting our new sweet baby niece, and driving home 7 hours in … [Read more...]
Merry Christmas!
For to us a child is born, to us a son is given, and the government will be on his shoulders. And he will be called Wonderful Counselor, Mighty God, Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace. Isaiah 9:6 NIV Wishing you and yours a very Merry Christmas! I hope you spent your day celebrating with the ones nearest and dearest to your heart, as I did. … [Read more...]
