Happy Friday 1/27/23

Happy Friday! The sun came out this week and it almost, just almost, felt like spring for a minute. Or maybe it was my excitement for the exterior and garden projects we are planning for this summer! And speaking of gardens, how lovely is Morgan’s garden from the The White Farmhouse Blog?! She is giving me some serious hydrangea goals! Fingers crossed for a warm week ahead so we can all dream about the gardening days ahead.
