I'm sure the young families feel most welcomed. <br />If you ever consider cupboard updates, we've had very good results with a professional spray painting them.

We are currently thinking about putting an island in to replace a harvest table - the extra storage and counter space would be a welcome addition. I loved the picture of your "working" dining room table. Mine looks very similar on most days (when not expecting guests). We have a much smaller party tent (10 X 10) - wherever did you get that great large one? I love it! Here in SW Ontario we are supposed to have a permit to put up our small tent - can you imagine? I love that John roasts and blends his own coffee. Your grandchildren are just darling and growing so fast. I enjoyed peeking into your kitchen Marg!Rosellahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14615262714438296920noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6454531829676162260.post-16374464613299845452017-04-08T10:45:42.784-07:002017-04-08T10:45:42.784-07:00Your potholder episode made me smile.

Last night it got singed by the burner flame, but I just wet it down, let it dry, and will continue to use it. It's indestructible...:) Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6454531829676162260.post-49126993781950993402017-04-08T09:45:29.965-07:002017-04-08T09:45:29.965-07:00I also know first-hand what a warm and welcoming k...I also know first-hand what a warm and welcoming kitchen this is! I have sat at the island many times, enjoying good coffee and good conversation. We have laughed and we have cried there. I have seen Marg's table set beautifully for many different occasions...and was totally blown away when I arrived at her door for a life group get-together recently and found that table all decked out for a surprise birthday dinner (in my honour). I've been at several of Marg's 'tent parties', have sat around the fire pit on many occasions, and always enjoyed the yummy treats from her kitchen! Thanks for the many 'peeks' I have had into the heart of your home, Marg. I know your door is always open...and the coffee is on. <br /><br />Sent from my iPhoneJudy https://www.blogger.com/profile/00929685771427155673noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6454531829676162260.post-10618341878577311412017-04-08T08:42:00.068-07:002017-04-08T08:42:00.068-07:00Marg, I loved seeing these pictures.

I was thinking that maybe a decorator would say there needs to be updates but your kitchen is beautiful and functional and the most important thing is that it is used .... everyday. Your home is a place where family and friends want to be because you are at the helm of that kitchen island!

I've sat at the island with a hot coffee (John's brew) and a good visit with you. I've walked around that island when it's been a buffet of wonderful food, I've walked in when you've been in the middle of using that island for an everyday task. You know the art of being naturally welcoming and allowing your home to be flexible and used for whatever the moment calls for. I've sat under that big tent with friends, and kept warm by your fire for a few moments...and I've come to love your family, and have gleaned some nuggets from you along the way. Thanks for the peek....such cute kiddos and the boys are really growing up.Kathyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06617977766426840836noreply@blogger.com
