right now

I really do want to start writing here again. But things are so busy right now, and I am trying very hard not to overwhelm myself! I want to be able to actually enjoy this season with my family. So here is a quick pictorial offering of what we've been up to and what is inspiring me in our home right now. Happy Holidays!!

  1. Merry Christmas to you all! Great pictures ;-) You tree looks so different than what we find here! I am so anxious to see you all in Minnesota - sorry there doesn't appear to be any significant snow in the forecast! See you soon - love, Mom

  4. Looks like your Christmas was quite festive . . . and warm! We may not have been in the 70s, but it was no white Christmas here either. Hope you're all well!

    P.S. I too am diving back into blogging and trying not to overwhelm myself. Good luck to you!
