This Winter we have spent more time ‘hibernating’ than ever. While a large influence on this has been the fact we have a new little life within our lives, we are so appreciative of the beautiful change this slower pace of life has brought. The more time we have spent at home, the more it has become our own little sanctuary for our new family.
