  • Happy Sunday friends! Hope y’all are enjoying a lovely weekend! If you haven’t noticed from my stories the last few days, we’ve been enjoying some sun and sand down in beautiful #guayabitos #mexico. My in-laws are lucky enough to call this incredible little town home and I’m sure it’s no surprise that we come down to visit as often as we can. Nothing beats a warm, sunny day on the beach, but what we really love most is that we have this opportunity to really experience the culture here and meet and interact with so many of the people that call this beautiful area home. . . . #learningspanish #guayabitosnayarit #rincondeguayabitos #rincóndeguayabitos #mexico🇲🇽 #mexico_amazing #travelmexico #athomeintheworld #exploremexico #traveltheworld #exploringtheworld #exploringtheglobe #mytinyatlas #instatravel #travelgram #mexicotravel #guayabitosmexico #travelmexico #traveltomexico
  • Friday night plans include: 1. Finishing up our spring bedroom tour to share on the blog tomorrow (you can catch it on my #youtube channel tonight though if you just can’t wait). 2. Curling up right here with my latest read (Circling the Sun by @paula_mclain in case you were wondering). 📖 Happy weekend friends! . . . #fridaymood #fridaynightvibes #fridaynight #happyfriday #helloweekend #happyweekend #grateful #woodsign #stencilwall #stencilledwall #itsnotwallpaper #mypotterybarn #linenbedding #springbedroom #ironbed #whitequilt #whitebedding #whitelinen #linen #springbedroom #springbedroomdecor #farmhousebedroom #farmhousespringbedroom #springdecor #farmhousespring #farmhousespringdecor #tdmloves #neutralbedroomdecor #farmhousespringdecor #farmhouseliving #farmhousestyledecor
  • Well, Monday sort of got away from me. What with the piles of laundry we brought back from our weekend away, the dusting and vacuuming I’d left for when we got back and and of course that empty fridge that needed filling again. But Tuesday? Well, I’ve got high hopes for Tuesday my friends! A kitchen tour to finish up for the blog and a video tour for my #youtube channel to go with it. Finally whipping up that spring wreath I’ve been dreaming up for ages now. And maybe even a nice long walk through the trails with our sweet Charley girl. #wishmeluck . . . #tuesdaymood #tuesdaymotivation #diyblogger #yeg #yeghomes #thatsnotwallpaper #stenciledwall #royaldesignstudio #woodsign #woodlamp #springbedroom #farmhousespring #bhghome #houseandhome #houseandhomemag #hyggelife #hyggehome #countryliving #countrylivingmagazine #myhomesensecanada #farmhousebedroom #farmhousebedroomdecor #simplespringcolors #simplespringhome
  • Happy Saturday friends! We’re away in #jasper for the weekend, enjoying one last ski trip for the season as the spring weather starts rolling in. I’ll tell ya, I’ll never get tired of waking up to this incredible view! . The boys are spending the day searching out all the jumps at the hill today while this mama enjoys some quiet time curled up right here with a new book. After all, ski trips aren’t just for skiing. 😉 What are you up to this weekend? . . . #skitripsarentjustforskiing #happysaturday #weekendvibes #weekendgetaway #travelab #travelalberta #mountains #newbook #saturdaymornings #albertacanada #jaspernationalpark #jasperalberta #myjasper #alberta_ca #albertaviews #albertalife #albertarockies #weekendtrip #skitrips #jasperparklodge #fairmontjasperparklodge #yeg
  • Knitting is one of those skills I’ve always admired. 🧶 Maybe my love for knitting has something to do with the fact that we spend so much of our year in the cold here in Canada, but whatever the reason, I’ve always been drawn to the texture and coziness of a knit. . Years ago, when I was in grade school my Gram taught me the basics, but in the 20+ years since, I’m sorry to say I haven’t put those skills to work much - waiting so long between projects that I don’t even know how to start again. Often, I find myself wishing I could knit up a cozy blanket or a warm sweater, but just as quickly as the thought comes, I talk myself out of it, knowing I really have no clue what I’m doing or where to start. Sometimes taking on a new project or learning a new skill can feel a bit overwhelming & intimidating when you think about everything you don’t know, but we all have to start somewhere, right? . So finally, just a few weeks ago (smack dab in the middle of the coldest February in more than 40 years no less), I took the plunge and dove head first into one of those projects I’ve been coveting for ages. And you know what? It was SO much easier than I’d ever expected! Though to be fair, I did have a bit of help (you’ll have to swing by the blog to read more about all of that though). . Are you a knitter? Are there any projects or skills you’ve found too intimidating to take on? . #knitting #knittingpattern #knittinglove #knittingaddict #diyknitblanket #knittersofinstagram #knitknitknit #knitblanket #knitblankets #chunkyknitblanket #howtoknit #knittingnewbie #knittingisthenewyoga #knitpicks #knittersoftheworld #handknitblanket #giantknitblanket #yeg #yeghome #countrylivingmag #countryliving #houseandhomemag #houseandhome #neutralspringdecor #simplefarmhousetouches #neutraldecor #hyggehome #hyggelife #wak @weareknitters
