Theme Thursdays
When I think of winter what comes to mind is snuggly fleece, warm blankets and the darkness. Obviously, I am not an outdoors sports type of person. I prefer to observe the white fluffiness from inside my warm home all […]
Theme Thursday – WINTER WONDERLAND I know some of you live in warmer climates than me (it wouldn’t take much, really), so just post what winter looks like for you. Now, I better get more takers this week! I’m sadly […]
