snippets of our new home (:

Trinkets

My favourite place to sit when the fire is going

Our ceiling (and the absolutely awesome baby hammock gifted to me off freecycle)

Blessing above all blessings

Hanging in wait of chilly weather

Jude's 'inside' tricycle

Cutie pie (:

I try to put just about everthing in a basket. I love baskets, probably too much (-;

I love our new home so much. We have been here a month now and yet it feels like we have always been here in some deep-rooted way. Even the land speaks to me of my belonging here, of my connection to this place. I cannot wait to make the outdoors pretty, as it has been basically sitting in wait for about 10 years. Renters have come and gone but no one has tended it in the way it deserves. A treasure. A hidden one, as my Mom declared upon first visiting. For now, as I gently ready for the birth of my third babe, I am in bliss.
