    What I love most about Spring is the annual coming together of the natural and the spiritual (SUPER natural?) in the promise of rebirth. When I see the arrival of the tiny crocus and daffodil and the early returning birds it fills my heart with hope and joy and renews my spirit, ready, most of all, to taste what lies ahead.

  • ☀️ Sea + Sun + Smiles We drove across the state last week for a vacay with family! Had a great time and I was so in the moment, I only took a few photos! We had incredible weather and basically lived our best lives all day on the beach and in the pool together! . . I have had a few messages asking where I have been on insta…. The truth is, I have been soaking up time with my kids, working on a few home updates and spending as much time at the beach and in our pool

This cute wall (mirror + furniture) is being moved to another wall and a fireplace will go in its space! The dining room is getting a new furniture piece and light… almost finished there! Lilah is getting a room re-do perfect for a big girl! Lots more on the list too!! Stay tuned…. What do you have on your home to do list? Anything fun! Share below!
