Come take a virtual stroll through Hobby Lobby for some fall window shopping and inspiration! I could feel it in the air at the bus stop this week. FALL! Did you feel it where you live too? It was a slight temperature drop but the briskness was hard to miss and it definitely made me smile. The first day… View Post
Next stop on the Peach Valley House Tour is our Southern Back Porch Outdoor Room we affectionately refer to as “The Hub” When it came to getting settled in the new digs, The Big Sweet and I each had our short list of priorities.

I still can’t believe we are in a school… View Post
