Books, Writing, & The Cozy Life
What a weekend! I don't think the weather could have been more perfect. We spent massive chunks of time outside and braved the arrival of all of the bugs because the sunshine was too good to pass up. I watched a good bit of the coronation with Colton at my side on Saturday morning. What... Continue Reading →
Happy Friday, friends! It is the last Friday of April. This month totally zoomed by and I'm shocked that Monday is the first of May. I try my best to make Fridays about joy here in my Cozy Burrow, so today's post is full of flowers, stitching, and a few highlights from the week. I... Continue Reading →
It is the Friday before school vacation week! We're taking the week off from Blackberry Bluff School and Colton will be on a break from all of his programs. It might sound like a vacation but I'll likely be busier than ever and will yearn for a vacation of my own once the week ends.... Continue Reading →
Monday! I have woken up with extremely swollen nasal passages which are probably caused by all of the incredibly beautiful spring-like weather we've had over the last week. Honking like a duck is a small price to pay for all of the flowers that are finally blooming around me. We spent so much time outside... Continue Reading →
Hello! I must tell you that yesterday was the most gorgeous day. We spent almost the entire afternoon outside and planted a ton of flowers from our local nursery. I could not have asked for a more perfect April day and today's forecast predicts the same. What luck! I wanted to update you on a... Continue Reading →
Happy Friday! I am so pleased that we're nearing the weekend. The kids are almost completely back to themselves but the adults are still struggling with the cold we've had over the last week+. I am still not sleeping well, have a nagging cough, and am full of sinus pressure and pain. I am hoping... Continue Reading →
Thank you everyone for your well wishes in my last post. Colton is pretty much back to normal but the rest of us are struggling. And it always makes the weekends hard when one child isn't sick but the rest of us are. Colton was pretty bored and impatient with us, especially given that we... Continue Reading →
First of all - Thank you all for your well-wishes on Wednesday's post. Colton is still coughing, but he was fever-free yesterday so I'm pretty sure he's going to school today (for the first day this week!). I'm still fighting a fever but am feeling much better overall. And last night I was up and... Continue Reading →
It's Saturday! I meant to publish this post at some point yesterday, but the whole day was a whirlwind. So I'm here today with a little stitching update. I haven't been stitching a ton over the last few weeks, but I have a gorgeous new tool, a little progress, and some plans to share. I... Continue Reading →
Some of you may remember when The Farmer's Wife Sampler Quilt Book was first published back in 2009. It got really popular in quilting circles around 2013 and 2014 and Quiltstagram exploded with beautiful examples like Camille Roskelley's. While going through things in my little sewing nook, I found a box full of my own... Continue Reading →
