Hello! Welcome to my "new" blog! I figured, since I have changed the name of my blog, I needed to change my blog's URL too! Bunny Rose Cottage is a part of my past. A very good part. I had so many wonderful memories in that home and in that part of my life. But my life has changed, a lot. And it is time to change my blog address too, not just the name :) Thank you so much for finding me here. I hope you will continue to follow my journey, here on this blog. I love all of my followers and I don't wamt tp lose any of you :) I merged all of the posts from my other blog to this one, so it is basically the same blog but with a different web address :) Love to you all and again, thank you!!

Little touches of spring...

Hi there! It feels like it has been a long time since I have done an actual blog post, lol. I just haven't felt much like blogging the last couple weeks. And if you don't feel like doing it, it is best to take a break. It has been bitter cold here and cloudy for days on end. Sooo depressing and draining. Finally, the sun came out today. The house was so bright and pretty. I figured I better snap some pictures before it goes away again. My oldest three kids are on mid winter break this week so I will be busy with them here. They are sooo happy to have some off. lol. I have seen about 20 minecraft videos already, lol. Oh well, it is there time to enjoy.

Yesterday was Dave and my wedding anniversary. We went out for a nice dinner and drinks at Haydins. Then we bought a triple chocolate torte cake and took it home to eat with the kids. It was to die for! We are going to celebrate more in the summer when Dave is on vacation. I have been looking at flight and hotel packages online for a little get away. Looking forward to some time alone! We are hoping to go to Savannah if everything works out right. I feel bad having my mom come down here and watch the kids, lol.

Now that Valentine's Day is over, I have been doing a little spring decorating!
Nothing says spring like tulips! Dave has brought me home a couple bouquets of tulips over the last couple weeks. The color of these is so pretty and I love the berries :)
And of course, bunnies, my all time favorite spring inspiration :) I found this fluffy little guy at the supermarket while getting groceries the other day. Love how chubby and soft he is.
I couldn't resist this cute grey and cream ticking bunny from Katie's Rose Cottage.
Love the detail of lace and a little rhinestone piece :) I hung it from the hutch cupboard in my kitchen.
These lace wings are so delicate and pretty. I bought them from Evelyn and Rose shoppe. I love Susan's blog too. Her home is so beautiful and she is super talented.
A couple of days ago, I went to one of my favorite boutique stores. They had soooo many cute Easter and spring items. Of course I had to bring a couple pieces home with me :) I thought this little tag with a little girl and her bunny was just too cute to leave behind :)
When I saw this adorable soft pink egg with the little chicks inside, I fell so in love!
Aren't they cute? And I just love all of the little egg covered bottle brush trees :) Such a happy little spring piece.
This is a thick cutout of a vintage style Easter image. It has a stand so it sits up. I thought it was so cute and perfect for my kitchen. The colors are so rich and pretty.
 
 

Another bouquet of tulips from my sweetie. Soft powder pink :) I am so ready for spring!!!! I have been overjoyed to see all of the spring and Easter decor in the stores! Lots of chocolate bunnies too :) Well, this is a little bit of new spring added to my home. I am working on a couple little things for spring too. Some inspiration from my Fairytale Easter book. Hope you all have a lovely week! Thank you so much for visiting me today! XO, Amy
