My New Favorite Rug

It can be so hard to buy a rug online.

Sometimes I have spent months looking for the right rug…and something tells me I might not be alone in that.

You look at the pictures on a website and you’re trying to figure out if the colors will work in your home (not to mention what is the right size for your room…).

Last spring, I thought I’ll do a weekly round up post on my blog. Then a few weeks later our state shut down due to the virus, the kids came home to homeschool….and here we are months later.

We are grateful to be starting school in a hybrid model and praying that we will be able to continue and for safety and health.

The summer was a lot of time at home and at the pool (also grateful for that).
