Hi there, all! Well, we are officially into the autumn season by a couple of days, and I am finally able to embrace it fully. I personally do so as soon as August comes to a close, however it’s now more socially acceptable, haha.
This past Sunday afternoon, my husband and I went on a lovely drive together in the countryside near our home. Here, the third weekend of September is historically the weekend where many of the leaves have changed colour, but most of them are still fluttering brightly on the trees. We are also usually gifted with a spotlessly sunny and blue sky, and this combination creates a beautiful mosaic of autumn colours over the landscape. This is something I have taken note of over the past 6 or 7 years, so we always make a point to get out at least one of the afternoons that weekend to soak in the season. Troy and I have a specific spot we visit, where a grouping of immense trees have begun showering down their leaves, creating a vast area to enjoy the crunch beneath your feet as you walk along the path.

WHITE & WHIMSICAL CHRISTMAS KITCHEN
Every year during the holiday season, I love to crank up the Christmas music and enjoy spending some time in the kitchen baking seasonal treats for my family.

MUDROOM RENOVATION & REFRESH
Hi, friends! I hope you are all doing well on this chilly Tuesday.
We have been up to our shins in snow since November 1st came, which is typical for our city, and it has me looking forward to the holiday season. It is interesting thinking about being in a new place for the holidays for the first time, though. For the past 5 years, I have been used to having just our one small room to decorate in the apartment we lived in, plus maybe adding a couple of touches to the bedroom. Now, I have an entire home as my canvas for the season! It is both exciting, and daunting, as well as a little bittersweet reminiscing on all of the memories we shared in our tiny, but cozy, home Continue reading “MUDROOM RENOVATION & REFRESH”
SIMPLE FOR WINTER
Hey, everyone! I hope you all had a wonderful holiday season and a great start to this new year. I just thought I would stop in to chat, and to share a few wintery photos from around my home.
My holidays were filled with relaxing at home with my husband, as well as a lot of time spent with family and friends. It was such a great season, however it’s always a little sad for me after Christmas and New Years has come and gone, and one realizes they have to get back to reality with schedules and routines. But, that feeling always passes and then I feel Continue reading “SIMPLE FOR WINTER”
