It's been absolutely beautiful here. I've been spending a lot of time making our front porch look warm and inviting and I think for the most part I have succeeded. I love to sit out there with a book or my knitting and a glass of wine. Rooney loves it too!



Below is the front view of our house. It's great to just chill out and watch people wander by.



Our next door neighbors just had some big old nuisance trees removed which gave us a lot more sunlight on the side of our house so I took full advantage and put some hanging flower baskets and perennials in.
