Last weekends of summer…
Saturday afternoon started off slow and sweet. We tried to rest this weekend - really, really rest. I am so thankful that we did!
The Front Door
I'm blessed. Julia got in on the fixer upper bug and she and Brian painted my front door. When Brian asked what color I wanted, I threw him a Dottie Angel towel and said 'the blue on there'. Clear as mud, huh? Can I just tell you that I am in love? So, so...
