Random thoughts on an Easter weekend Saturday:

1. If you’ve ever wondered if you should move to Texas? You should SEE our yard sales.

Y’all.

I found THE CUTEST lamp for the new office. It looks like something right out of a Brady Bunch episode.

2. I wore a high pony last week. It was amazing. If you aren’t already, you need to add a high pony to your hair rotation. I used this hair texturizing powder to make it stay up and it was so easy to just put the hair in a ponytail and go.

3. Are you watching Sanditon on Masterpiece? I think this is the last season. It’s SO GOOD. If you haven’t started it yet go back to Season 1 and start there so it all makes sense.

4. It was an amazing week on the blog. We talked about:

5. A mama bird built a nest in the wreath on our front door. She laid six eggs and they just hatched and I’ve watched her feeding her chicks.

Spring is here.

    That was one of the more fun design style quizzes I've ever taken. Apparently I'm "vintage salon". This week's lineup was especially fun. I always loved the Little Women house from the 1994 movie. KariAnne, I think you are itching to travel somewhere ....

    Good morning KariAnne and happy Easter weekend. I took the design style quiz and I am "pottery studio" who knew :) I'm pleasantly surprised by it and I do agree with tranquil and comfortable along with the sunbleached tones. Next I'm going to try and make the homemade ranch, Yum.

    This was nice, I needed to sit and rest after being outside in my flower beds. I enjoyed all, even though I was suppose to rest 30 min. it took a little longer. It was a fun time well spent.

    I am a little late reading your Thistlekeeping post - but wanted to say I love the piece you shared on Cultivating Courage. It is definitely something we all need to embrace, particularly as we get older. Thanks for sharing so many beautiful and inspiring things.
