Hello everyone, if anyone is out there to read my first post. I live just outside of Dallas, Texas and boy do we have the snow, record amount. If fact where we are I would say close to 14 inches. It is just so beautiful and peaceful, quiet and serene. I never thought I would ever see this much snow here. And of course the little cottage on Houston St, my home is covered beautifully. I guess if I can't have spring yet I will take the snow. At least it is better than all the rain we have had in the past few months. I am even afraid I lost some of my perennials in all the rain, but I hope not. We moved into the little cottage several years ago to downsize in our lives, our two children were pretty much grown (although they never really grow up) but you know what I mean. My daughter was married and my son just about ready to go off to college. We now I have a beautiful wonderful granddaughter and my son is off to school at Texas A & M and now we have the little cottage to fix up the way we like. I will post pics from time to time to show my progress and hope to get suggestions from all you gals out there who love to decorate as much as I do, in the tradition of Rachel Ashwell's shabby chic which I just love. But also the white cottage look too. I am also a fanatic about gardening and growing anything, anything at all, especially if it produces a beautiful flower or something we can eat.
