Craft Night

Spring Planters and Flowers

May 24, 2019 | Flowers, House

Hello

We had the perfect snow day yesterday and I spent it decorating the house for Christmas. Winnie spent it cuddled up in "her" chair with a quilt, and Dave ripped out the carpet in the dining room. He also made a homemade pasta and meatball dinner. I was...
