A Sense of Belonging
“The heart wants what it wants.”Emily Dickenson Hello, sweet friend… This week marked two weeks since we moved into our 1927 Cape Cod home… a home I knew from the moment I walked through the doors… It would be the perfect place for sharing special times with family and friends.

Home is … Read the full blog post

A house is built with walls and beams…A Home is made with love and dreams–anonymous 🏠 Hello, sweet friend… 🏠 It’s been quite a week… Labor Day had a different reality this year as we moved into a new neighborhood. The home that motivated such a quick decision or so it appeared… was a home I believe I fell in love with when we first moved to the Oregon coast. I remember driving the country roads through a small town passing this pretty storybook house. Looking back now… I can see that was when the spark was lit… bit by … Read the full blog post
