Snowbird is a term used for those in the northern US states and Canadian provinces spending most of the winter in the southern US states. While my husband and I own vacation property in the sunny south we are not the typical snowbird because we only go down three times a year for 2 to 5 weeks at a time. It's not that we couldn't stay longer, we choose not to and my husband isn't ready to fully retire anyway. We are homebodies enjoying being at home entertaining our family and friends especially during the holiday season.
What is really nice about our vacation home is it is pretty much the same colour schemes as our new home - taupes, moss green, browns and burgundy. I think the only real difference is our couch set here (permanent home) is navy blue but that works with all those colours too. So anything I bring to the vacation home from here automatically matches.

What does a Garden Gnome do when she is not gardening, in the kitchen or doing genealogy? Well the answer might just surprise you so read the entries to find out more. This blog focuses on everything we do to make our house a home. There will be a strong emphasis on home energy efficiency and do-it-yourself (DIY) projects. At the same time there will also be crafts, knitting and crocheting projects along with any other little tips we do to create that down to earth, I want to be here home. Please enjoy your visit :)
