SPT- Welcome Home

I LOVE coming to my house! The big front porch, the bay window, the red brick... it welcomes me! I hope others feel it too because you are always welcome here!


And you probably need to ring my doorbell. I scream at my kids a lot and may not hear you knock. Although, now that the weather is nice, my kids spend most their time outside and would be happy to let you in. Or, you can have your realtor call and get the code to the keybox to let you in.


Of course, you are most likely to catch me coming or going, in which case- just follow us in through the garage. No promises about how it will look, but it is the door I use most.


I hope I didn't miss you today.

I was gone all day thanks to my SUPER, WONDERFUL, GRACIOUS friend Julie!!

She offered to take Ethan when I dropped the other kids at school and keep him until I picked them up!! (I told you she was wonderful!) I went to the temple with Kelly, including lunch in the cafeteria, and visit taught the two sisters I could get appointments with. I felt calm and happy all day. THANK YOU Julie!! You are, have I said it already, WONDERFUL!!

{Kristen Smith- I am absolutely delighted that you found me!! I tried to comment on your blog to say, "Hello sweet friend! I was so happy to read your comment!" But it won't let me. So, Hello! And I'd love to say more if there's a way!!}

I knew this would be a fun challenge for you because you love your front porch so much. It's definitely friendly and welcoming.

So where do you get your SPT challenge? It is so fun!

And yes, I love your front porch too. I always wished we could have added that to our house.

the garage shot is great. that's pretty much how i enter my own home - you would think i would try to make my own entrance a little more grand.

Your house is welcoming and beautiful. I'm like you, always coming and going. I rarely get to use the front door.

Oh my, I have missed your last few posts. A 5k as a family? Great idea!

Your front door looks inviting.

I'm definitely a porch person too but your porch definitely rocks better than mine--good luck with the sell of your home!! I love the picture of you in the garage- it looks like you're holding the bikes in your hand--
