Visit With Nova Scotia Family Continued

Thanks for joining me today....I'll share a few more photos of this beautifully decorated home...the fireplace that dreams are made of! 

The Christmas tree sign...is actually a television...the garland on the mantle was picked up on their visit with us here at Inspired Living....and can you see the adorable Frenchie statue on the hearth - we gifted them last month?   All decked out with a holiday bow....

Their stunning tree holds many precious ornaments handed down over the years...

A beautiful start to their Christmas village collection....and the antique wagon is a recent find....

 A stunning nativity set...purchased at Costco (can you believe it?).....a number of years ago....

Their beautiful kitchen area...a pleasure to prepare meals there...

We gifted this adorable Frenchie...long before the house was completed....sitting proudly on the counter...

Kitchen island....beautifully decorated....with an awesome walk in pantry close by....I forgot to snap a photo of the amazing bar stools....

Even more awesome than their home....was spending time with them!  My nephew's wife & I spent Saturday shopping & browsing....I'll share in another post....

The drive home was a bit daunting....we checked the weather forecast for Nova Scotia, New Brunswick (as we drive through New Brunswick briefly to get home) & PEI - nothing mentioned in any of the provinces about snow, blowing snow & poor visibility....

As we were entering the Confederation Bridge...traffic was restricted for high sided vehicles (due to high winds)....and the driving speed was reduced for crossing...

I remind myself since the bridge opened in 1997 - there hasn't been any vehicles gone over the side...but when a wind gust pushes your vehicle....it makes for a white knuckle crossing....it was good to be home!! I'm glad Mr. Seventies was driving!!

It's milder & rain in the forecast today & tomorrow!  And finally...I plan to pull our bedroom together after Christmas....I think I found lamps that will work!  I've exhausted looking in local stores...and have settled on ordering a couple online!  I plan to update the guest bedroom as well...

We are spending time with grand baby & family this weekend...dinner followed by taking in their community Santa Claus parade!  The weather looks agreeable in the long range forecast...

Have an awesome day...and until next time!
