A Whirlwind and a Standstill
Ha! This blog is on "reboot" I don't even know how many at this point. I started The Palm House five years ago ... what?! Eric and I were dating and a month later got engaged. If you go way back into the archives you'll see posts about wedding planning, DIY projects, recipes, our home [...]

Getting family and friends together, giving gifts, celebrating and reflecting on the past year, and winter snow. And now, Christmas is even more special for us with Lincoln.
