Our living and dining rooms are attached. To give you an idea of our house layout, the living room/dining room and family room take up the same space as the upstairs master bedroom and ensuite. I loved the layout as soon as we saw the home. The dining room can only...

We were waiting through many cold, icy, miserable months for summer to arrive and then bam it’s here! Well spring to be more accurate… I always think of spring as a short gateway to summer anyway. We are enjoying time in our backyard. We aren’t big gardeners so the...
