Hello, March! I’m not quite sure where you came from? February was a beautiful, crazy, stressful, exhilarating blur of colour. We’re officially at the start of a new adventure and this month, March, we’re going to hope you help us find our groove along this path.
We’re ready to explore more new to us places. We’re ready to keep seeing the golden sunshine bursts of daffodils dotted around, heralding Spring’s upcoming return. We’re ready for long strolls by the river, watching the swans and geese and discovering hidden gems.
We’re ready to celebrate St. Patrick’s Day in new surroundings. But, my Nana’s Irish soda bread will still be gracing our table. It wouldn’t feel like St. Patty’s Day if we didn’t have that. We’re ready to keep cleaning and organising, as we work on carving out a space of our own.
We’re ready to continue to embrace the seasons. I don’t think Lady Winter is quite ready to let go. But, March is supposed to be blustery, a month that blows the cobwebs away, so that everything is fresh and ready for Lady Spring’s arrival.
Welcome, March! We’re excited to see what magic you hold for us as we continue to find our groove to the beat of a new tune.
🧧🐎 Happy Lunar New Year 🐎🧧
May the Year of the Fire Horse, bring luck and good fortune your way!

Although today specifically is a celebration of love, don’t forget, there are still 364 other days in which to celebrate L-O-V-E in all its many shapes and forms.
May today find you surrounded by love. Whether you are celebrating loving yourself, loving another, or simply being loved. 💋

Hello, February, you beautiful month of L❤️VE! Oh, you bring us so much this month. We’re ready for new adventures to unfold, new places to discover and new surroundings on the horizon.
You bring with you the “Year of the Horse” and I think this fire horse shall come charging into its year as we leave the snake behind. We’re ready for the birthdays we celebrate this month. We’re ready for the school break you bring and the chance that gives us to check a few things off that old “Honey Do” list together! We’re ready for cold fresh days with the promise of snow in the air.
We’re ready to hunker down on cold evenings with a good book in hand or a favourite cozy movie and just be, breathing in and happily exhausted from the extra hard work we’re putting in on a new project.
We’re ready to move forward as always with intention, hearts open wide and embrace all that you have to offer. Here’s to candlelight, kitchen dance parties, pancakes for dinner and hot chocolate filled afternoon walks. Welcome, February!

So much has happened in the past 365 days and then again so little. This year has had its challenges and still more to come. But we stand waiting for the New Year, hand in hand and shall face what the future brings together. We walk in faith.
May this coming year hold peace, love and light for us all. Wishing you love as we kiss this past year goodbye and open our arms in greeting to the new one about to dawn.

And now is the time we continue to make merry on these most sacred of days as we soak up as much as we can from the time that is left in this year before crossing the bridge into the new.
And this New Year is going to bring big adventures and a lot of changes for us. So for now, we’re visiting with loved ones, we’re relishing in the quiet, we’re moving slowly and thoughtfully and drinking in all this year has left to over.
We’re cobbling together sandwiches with leftovers. We’re watching old Christmas movies while working on jigsaw puzzles. We’re going on long walks and drinking in the fresh air only to race home for hot chocolates. We’re dancing in the kitchen and making Christmas cocktails.
We’re taking a breath, as we stand on the cusp of what has been and what has yet to be.

The stockings are hung, the presents are wrapped and we are awaiting the magical sound of sleigh bells in the air…
