I would seriously consider myself a homebody. I like to go places but my passion is creating a getaway in my own backyard to enjoy at my convenience. If you have ever been to the mountains in the little area called "The Village" you have seen my inspiration spot. I add a few items of interest each year to create a dramatic setting for nice nights to sit outside and relax. Next on my wish list is stone for a path. (if you happen to see David you could help me out with this...ha)
We live in our home so it is not like walking into a magazine. My home is small but cozy. I fill it with things I love both inside and out...it is a reflection of me:) I absolutely love to decorate for the holidays. To me...there really is no place like home. It warms my heart when we take Chloe Jo places and after a while she looks at you and tells you she wants to go to her house. She loves to be with her mama and daddy with her own stuff and her cats. Truthfully, home is her favorite place to be. That gives me comfort:)
Just something as silly as Taco Tuesday really gets Chloe Jo excited! I started doing this about once a month...and she loves it:) I think families need to make time for boardgames, arts and crafts, family get-togethers, movie nights, eating supper at the table, just basic traditions. These are the memories I cherish the most...the simple things about our home.
On the list for tomorrow...making a stepping stone...complete with mosaic tiles and Chloe Jo's handprint at 2 years old. Also, transplanting some Black-Eyed Susan and Bermuda grass patrol. Go out and make fun memories in your backyard friends!
Just a little of what has gone on at our house lately:) ![]()
