Country Home





I don't know what it is about this house, but I just love it.
We have been driving past this house for years on our way to the cottage, and I just had to stop this time and take pictures so I could show you how magnificent it is.
That wrap around porch just beckons you to come sit for a while. I love the gingerbread trim on its peak. Our cottage resembles this place a little, but of course its made of logs. Maybe unconsciously, I tried designing the cottage to resemble this place, do you think?

What a pretty house. It would be nice to sit on the porch and visit. Thanks for sharing.

This house reminds me of my great-grandmother's place. Of course, i never knew her but my mother took me to the old house years ago. It, too, had a wrap around porch.
I love your blog! Will sign up to follow you..

Thanks for coming by my blog this evening. It's so good to hear from you my friend. Give that apple pancake a try. It's really delicious. You'll just love it!

Have a wonderful and blessed Holiday weekend. ~Melissa :)

Yes, I am loving it too. Ask my husband we kept driving back where our house was built and I kept saying someday I will have a house like that; well we bought that house. I'll tell you the whole story one day.
Thanks for stopping by.
