FRENCH COUNTRY ENGLISH COTTAGE GARDEN TRADITIONAL IRISH FARMHOUSE

That pretty much sums up my home decorating style.

I cannot decide on one style. It's too hard. I love it all.

Actually, I don't like modern or Victorian or retro.

I'm struggling with the toile thing.

I love, love, love it. I just have trouble placing it in my home for some reason. I either have too small a splash to make a difference or I go way overboard. I need to find that perfect middle ground. I guess I'll just have to keep reading my favorite decorating blogs! :-)

I did order new curtains for the bedroom and living room. I have to adjust the tieback and then I will post photos.

We planted a new rosemary outfront. Unfortunately, the beautiful agave we had grown for years bit the dust this year. There are some kind of bugs that attack them and this year, they took it down. The rosemary will look beautiful though. And the backyard is coming along nicely. We still have a ton of work to do before I even post photos of that though.

Today is my last day to relax and then it's back to work tomorrow. I had a wonderful break, getting to bond with my sweet grandson, Andrew. I miss him already. We spent hours on the couch, him snuggled up under my chin on my chest. I loved the way he curled up like a lima bean when you picked him up. The he would arch his back and streeeetccchhh like only a baby does. He smelled so lovely - that new baby smell - and I cannot believe how smooth his skin is. I can't wait to see my baby Roo again!

Happy Easter!
