Let's appreciate good moments with good people and good food.❤️

What is your family up to this long weekend? As for us, we are looking forward to having all of the kids home and together for the weekend. Maybe even get a family golf round in.

Whatever your plans look like, don't forget the most important part: taking a moment to be grateful for the good things in your life.

From my table to yours, I hope you enjoy plenty of sweet moments, with great company – and just the right amount of gravy! 🦃

With harvest season in full swing, August gives us every reason to keep our dollars close to home. 🌻 There are so many great ways to shop, eat, and support local right now!

This past weekend we stopped at the local farmers market and were able to find fresh fruit and vegetables. You have to love this time of year!

Which local market or farm stand do you always come back to? 🌽

After a busy summer of renovations, most homeowners are focused on enjoying the results, and that's totally understandable! 🛠️🏡Over the last few years we have been doing reno's inside and outside the house. The latest job was updating and renovating out basement.

By sheer force of habit, I always ask people this question once their renovations are over: does your coverage reflect the home you have today, or the one you had last year? Trust me, it’s a small conversation that can make a big difference!

Feel free to reach out before, during, and after your renos. I'm not exactly handy, but I can definitely help make sure your home is properly covered! 🖐️

Did you tackle a renovation project this summer, or do you have one in the works? 👇
