Happy weekend friends! How was your first week of 2022? Between the record setting low temperatures outside and the extended holiday break for students here in Alberta this week, we’ve certainly had a pretty quiet start to our year so far. While we have been spending most of our time staying warm & cozy inside the house (Brady & I have mostly been working from home this week too), we have managed to sneak out for a couple of snowmobile rides at least (albeit bundled right up with as many layers as possible). Thankfully, after more than two whole weeks of this bitter cold, things are finally supposed to warm up next week!

Though it’s been hard to not be able to venture outside much these past couple of weeks, spending so much time inside hasn’t been all bad – we’ve spent many cozy hours gathered around a puzzle or board game (C found this one under the tree this year), curled up with a book or movie in front of the fire, or testing out new recipes in the kitchen together. It’s definitely been a nice way to ease into a brand new year together.
On the blog this week…

And now, here are my favourite reads from the week…

Hayley Lunde’s Instagram account has me convinced I need to buy a 1920’s Heritage home, such a cute house!
Right?! Buying a lovely character home is one of the main reasons I want to move to a city! Ha!
