Our family really loves Sundays. It’s just a feel-good-family day, all the way around.
This past Sunday after Mass, we all came home, and changed into our old clothes, so that we could get working in our garden beds. Oh, the butterflies I get this time of year! It’s almost time for planting, so we needed to get all of the winter rye that we … Read More
It’s been awhile since we’ve shared a furniture refinish project with you. Unlike the last one which was extremely meaningful and refinished with much love, my mother’s dresser, this one is not so special. It’s a useful piece for our home, but it’s just a piece we picked up years ago at some department store or other. Regardless, it has been in a room we wanted … Read More
Our Doors to Storage home project, has been a bigger hit than we ever dreamed! I’ve even run across it on Pinterest a few times now! CraZy-Ness! Well, we knew there would be people who thought it was a pretty cool idea, out there somewhere. But we’re glad so many have loved it, and what’s more, have been inspired to make some benches and shelves, using old doors, in their … Read More
BOO!!
I had a goal this year, to have our whole homestead decorated for Halloween, by October 1st! So that we could enjoy it all the whole month of October. I also wanted it all blogged no more than a few days later. How long can it really take, to photograph, edit, and blog it? Apparently….9+ days. With my kids busy schedules, I’m in the driver’s seat, in gyms and … Read More
We’re guessing many of you love to see little home transformations, and creative spaces, as we do, and that’s just what we hope to share with you today. The photos we share will likely explain what we have done. But if you have just a bit of time, grab a drink of choice, and let us amuse you with a little more about the birth of this project.
We’ve heard … Read More
I have been SO ridiculously excited about this post. And you all know what happens when I get excited! I babble! But I’m going to make great effort in not doing that, this time. (Deep breath. I can do it! I know I can!). I’ve just had to focus on getting our current $100 Gift Card Give Away together (located in The Big Picture ; ).
So, we’re talking Annie … Read More
Just a quick update on how our gardens have grown. It’s August now.
The most exciting recent development, is we finally have some watermelons growing!
They are still fairly small. I forget what variety we planted, so maybe they won’t get much bigger.
I need to find the seed packet, and find out, because we’ve got a (passed due) deadline here!
We need to use the ‘Watermelon … Read More
I believe we’ve been both gardening and blogging, for about 3 years. Our life is filled with so many various passions, there is more than we are actually able to get to blogging. I sure try to get it all in though! But one area that is especially hard to keep you all updated with, is the gardening! Good gosh. Things grow and change SO fast, by the time I … Read More
It’s that time of year again, when we start sharing with you what we’ve got growing in our gardens! For me, growing our own gardens is one of the greatest gifts of the season, and I revel in the joy of it! So I am anxious to chit-chat with you in all of the gardening-related posts coming up, as we update you on this year’s fruits of our labors, and … Read More
We’ve been blessed time and time again, with wood to burn in our wood stove through the cold seasons of the year. Having a cozy fire going in our home, is definitely our preferred source of heat, and we’ve hardly had to invest much in keeping it going. Oak pallets are dropped and stacked beside our driveway regularly through the winter, by Michael’s supply company, who is always looking to … Read More
