Well, at this time of year I like to think over what were my favorite events and posts of the year. The biggest event for me was moving into our brand new house. This was a big undertaking for me, since we had been in our previous home for over 20 years. I purged a ton of things from my home, and went in a more French direction. It was a great exercise, and I think my furnishings benefited from the weeding out of things that no longer went with my look. And I blessed some friends with my cast offs, so everyone was happy all around.
I have enjoyed sharing the process of building our home with you, and it was a big day when 4 days after moving in, I shared my kitchen with you
I also so enjoyed giving a complete tour of the farmhouse.
I love this vanity I redid before we moved.
And I enjoyed doing a round up of grain sack projects, which also includes photos from our old city home.
I appreciate you for putting up with me as I went from cedarhillranch.blogspot.com to cedarhill-ranch.com to finally www.cedarhillfarmhouse.com. I think this one is a keeper, and I really like the sound of farmhouse so much better than ranch. I have gotten to know so many of you personally, and for that I am grateful. You are a wonderful, sweet, and caring bunch. I have so many exciting things happening next year in 2014, so I’m hoping you are sticking around with me.
Blessings to you in 2014!!
Love watching your blog as you went through your move. Your new home is beautiful!!! All your hard work was truly worth it as you completed all your choices and ideas. Much happiness in your new home for you and your family. And all the very best in 2014 !
I too love all you ideas & inspiration . You give me wonderful ideas of “stuff” to look for when I am “junkin” ( store shopping) what I can repurpose & paint & make beautiful again to Get that “French country ranch farmhouse ” look! Happy New Year!
I enjoyed watching all year long as you built your new house and moved into it. Wishing you a wonderful 2014.

I so much enjoyed the recap, Anita. I had seen your home from the tour, but had forgotten just how lovely it is. This time, I went a little crazy with pinning, so my Pinterest followers can also enjoy it! Many blessings for you and your beautiful family in the new year!
Anita,
I marvel at the smooth transition( at least blogwise) during this major move in your life, dear friend!!!
And,. . .I’m stuck like glue!!!
Happy New Year!!!

Hi Anita, I just stumbled upon your beautiful and informative blog….I recently moved back into our completed renovated home after 9 months….our kitchen has similarities….mine is a blend of French and English country…I hope to continue to post each room, as I get settled in…..N.xo
Hoping this link to my blog will work now!!
I just discovered you from a Pinterest search for counter stools. I really enjoyed your blog this morning as I hunkered down on another “snow day”! Really a treat to see your beautiful homes! So much that I was distracted from my search for stools! Back to that….I was hoping you would share which ones they were:)
They are from Restoration Hardware. Thanks for the compliment!!
