French Country Fridays 226 | A House Built For Entertaining!

Welcome to the ALL NEW French Country Fridays, the series that will inspire you to “Frenchify” your Friday!

It’s suddenly quiet at my home, since my California contingent left a couple of days ago. It really did our souls good to have our family all in one place for the first time since the pandemic 🥰 Now it’s back to work and planning for some future travel possibilities. Are you headed anywhere exciting this summer or perhaps in the fall? I’d love to know in the comments…and check out the home tour in my post A House Built For Entertaining today!
