The Morrow House {Part 2}

Welcome back to Part 2 of this incredible renovation story. If you missed Part 1, you're going to want to read it first - trust me! I don't know about you, but there are pieces of Amy's story that I don't think I'll ever forget. Sweet truths are tucked into her faith-filled words that bring so much encouragement and comfort to whichever stage of life we find ourselves in. And then there's the dream and determination to renovate a historic home that happened to be scheduled for demolition in just days! Let's continue...

Sundays at Home {Link Party}

Welcome back to Sundays at Home. Look how happy our ducks are to see you! 

(I probably shouldn't tell you about their perma-smiles, because I am sure it is you they are glad to see. However, there have been occasions when our dogs have gotten into their area and are chasing them, and the ducks look like they are smiling with joy as they run for their lives! You cannot wipe the smiles off their faces even if you tried. ;)

We are so glad you joined us and hope you all are having a lovely weekend.

Because of you, this weekly party is growing in

participation and inspiration. Thank you!

Before we jump into the party, here's what your hosts have been up to this week...

An Inspiring Home Renovation Story: The Morrow House {Part 1}

Courtesy of Whitetail Farmhouse

You may remember this home's charming exterior (pictured at the end of this post) from Season 5, Episode 1 of Fixer Upper. Joanna Gaines commented on the house, "I feel like a dog with a T-bone steak, I am like please give ME the T-bone steak!" She wanted to get hold of this house. However, the first-time home buyers on the episode, who were shown house hunting with the Gaines', selected a different home to suit their needs. 

We don't often get to see what became of the other homes. 

But today, I'm excited to share with you what became of this historic home, thanks to its visionary owner, Amy, and decades of dreams. When I first saw pictures of the home on Instagram, I was compelled to find out more about it. This house is not only stunning, but it has got soul. The story of how it came to be does not disappoint. Enjoy...

Vintage-Inspired Farmhouse and Christmas Flashcards...

Some product was received in exchange for promotion. Affiliate links are included. All opinions are my own.

This will be my second year using these charming vintage-inspired flashcards on gifts, wreaths, and place settings. Last year, I ordered the Christmas collection, but this year I'm excited to use both the Christmas and the Fixer Upper flashcards. The flashcards are an affordable (not to mention really cute!) way to personalize gifts, place cards, and home decor. You guys, I want to hang them everywhere. Join me in this mini obsession.

They Inherited A 1905 Farmhouse (Part Two)

It's been six months since I shared the story of Katie and her family, who inherited a 1905 Texas farmhouse, all of its contents, and 125 acres. You can read the original post here. (If you missed it, it's a must-read story!)

I felt an instant connection with this family's farmhouse story (many of you did too). I wanted to find out how things have been going since we last heard from Katie. I thought you might like to know too. If ever there was a farmhouse fixer upper that we can live vicariously through, I think this is it. 

If you have a question or comment for Katie, just leave it below in the comment section.

And now, let's hear the update from Katie...
