Well, it's finally here!!
My new blog, that is! I'm so excited to be starting this new blog, which is my second one; the first being my faith-based blog, called "Christ in the Clouds."
The name, 'Cairn Cottage' came from a few different sources and led me to choose it for this blog.
- A
Cairn is defined as a mound of stones, and were originally built in Scotland.
My husband is also a rock collector and we have decorated with LOTS of
rocks of all sizes around our house.
Source - I also found a Bible verse about rocks and felt drawn to think on that verse when writing in this blog.(Matthew 7:24 - "Therefore everyone who hears these words of mine and puts them into practice is like a wise man who built his house on the rock.
- In a poll I held, this name was the most voted for out of a list of 10 options.
Here is the front of my house.
Here is one side of the house.
The back yard has even more rocks.
This is the rock waterfall and pond on the other side of our house.
This rock-covered bridge was built by my talented husband!
- sharing my love of tea
- lake cottage living
- cottage decorating
- being creative with clothing ensemble combinations
- gardening and landscaping ideas
- life as an empty-nester
- and so much more!
So, I hope you will join my blog and start following all the great things I hope to be posting about!
I am switching any of the blog hops I followed at 'CITC' that have to do with any of the above subjects. Hopefully this move will be pretty smooth for me, as well as any of my followers.

ReplyDeleteI love your new blog! These must be the pictures of your new home! Where has the time gone? You've moved already! So wonderful! I'm looking forward to reading more of your adventures here. Blessings, Joan
ReplyDeleteOh, Joan, I wish we were moved already! Unfortunately, I think we are having more setbacks than we can count.(Kinda sounds familiar, huh!) Actually, this fountain is one of the things we will have to leave behind, if we do move. Yes, you heard me right, "IF". It's all kind of up in the air right now, so if you would, keep praying. Thanks for stopping by!
DeleteI'll be praying! I know how stressful it can be surrounding a move...so many questions, so many worries. But, take heart! It is all in God's hands and His timing is always perfect!
