tree farm inspired mud room..And my heart truly isn’t breaking over it.

Sometimes you’ve just got to let go of all of your type A over-the-topness and just enjoy the season for what it is, right?.I’ll almost definitely return to my time-consuming decorating ways next year when Jack is in preschool, but for this year, I’m enjoying things just as they are.I hope you enjoyed your little tour too!.

Have a great rest of the holiday season!It’s no secret that I’m a little obsessed with built-ins.Built-in shelving, storage, furniture, all of it.

In this house, it’s a bit of a necessary obsession because of the weird shapes and sizes of some of the rooms.

I wouldn’t say that it’s a small house, but there just aren’t a lot of good places to put all of our modern day furniture.It tastes like I’ve been working away in the kitchen all day like some kind of fancy Italian nonna, but it really only takes about 30 minutes to throw together.

It’s just one of those dinners you can make that keeps everyone happy and makes your life easier.Little Jack gets especially excited about it.

He loves his mom’s cooking!We’d been getting tired of regular boiled tortellinis with just straight sauce on them and I haven’t found a good crock pot recipe for tortellini that actually works, but this recipe is exactly what I’ve been looking for!.
