Oh, thank you Ashleigh! I wanted to take pictures outside as well but it was too much for one email-another time! 😉

Amelia! Your home is so cozy and beautiful. Ollie and Sandy are adorable. Hudson Valley! Ah! Thank you so much for sharing it with us. What a wonderful life you’re gifting the kids. I so miss wide open spaces and ancient trees. 😭 Please feel free to post pictures of that view anytime!! 😍

I’m most grateful for living two blocks from the sea, that I can smell the sea air from our back door, our cozy fireplace in the living room, that we have such a spacious place to live so close to the city—we are in Rockaway, 45 min away. We are in the middle of renovations and I can’t wait until they’re finished. This post gave me something to look forward to. Thank you ❤️‍🔥

Living close to the sea is a very special thing - you are lucky! That sea air smell! Renovations are a blessing and a curse - we just finished ours a year ago so I know exactly how you're feeling. It's going to be so great when it's done. Thank you for the kind words - I'll give the dogs a snuggle for you! ❤️

What a beautiful, warm and welcoming home! I'd love to know where you got the zinc table from? Thank you for sharing your space with us.

Thank you! I got the table from a Rhode Island company - ours was a floor model and on sale - here's their website: https://kingstonkrafts.com/dining-tables/zinc-top-tables

We've been in this house for 10 years. My ultimate fantasy is hosting a wedding at home for one (or both) of my kids aka Father of the Bride! ❤️😉

Wow that would be incredible! It makes me happy to know you've been there for 10 years. That gives me time to make my house into a Home. I know it takes time but man, I wish I was already at the cozy part.

It takes a long time. One room at a time! It's so overwhelming when you want to make the whole house nice. We have some pretty mediocre bathrooms that could do with a spruce up/renovation!

Thank you!! It is a very picturesque and cozy part of the world! Except for the dead of winter when the short days really get me down!
