I think holiday decorating starts earlier and earlier each year. Here we are not even one week after Halloween and I'm already thinking about decorating. Last year we decorated our tree mid-November but waited until after Thanksgiving to hang our lights outside... I'm thinking we'll do something similar this year. Another reason to get started at least thinking about things early is because lots of decorations sell out quickly. And with the extra time everyone has spent at home this year... I think they'll go even faster.

2020 has definitely been the year of the home. With so much time spent inside I’ve been hyper focused on home goods. One night while mindlessly scrolling instagram a few months back I stopped at an ad for Geometry dishtowels.

Having spent the majority of the past five months at home we've really had time to think about what areas I want to change/improve.

Late last week we (Jeff and his dad) finally got the wallpaper up in Crosby's room! I've had the wallpaper for months and was waiting until we had a few things repaired in the room before it could be hung. It completely transforms the room that was so plain before - now, we're just waiting on a mattress before we do the full "big girl" room transformation. Now that her walls are done I realized we have wallpaper in 3 different rooms in our house and wanted to do a post with the breakdown.

Since we've been spending so much time outside during the stay at home period, we've finally worked on some finishing touches to bring the patio together. A couple rugs, new throw pillows, another umbrella and finally having our tv installed have made a huge difference. Luckily the weather has been amazing so we can spend a lot outside. Jeff and I have especially loved sitting outside once the kids go to sleep at night.
