I am so looking forward to the simple pleasures of this season. Summer has become one of my favorite times of year ever since we moved here. The weather is just right for us—not too hot, but with plenty of sunshine—and it’s perfect for all of our little staycation adventures, which I’ll be sharing all summer long.

I love being intentional in each season. Time always flies, so it matters to me to make our home and our days feel the way I hope they will.

I share lots of ways to welcome a new season and create a home you’ll love year round, as well as embrace any season you’re in over in The HomeBody House (this is the HomeBody Gathering Place membership area of the blog). Everything there is newly organized, so it’s easy to navigate through lessons and find inspiration now. If you haven’t seen it lately, you will LOVE the updates! And if you are ready to make progress in your home, or just need a place where you feel at home, that’s the place to be!

We just started our summer session in The HomeBody House and kicked off a Love Your Home summer challenge! We have a lovely new home page for HomeBodies and freshly re-organized content that makes every step easier whether you’re welcoming the season, decorating or adding style to your home.

To kick off this new session I just shared a lovely summer rhythm I’ve been practicing, along with a few simple ways to make your summer mornings more productive but enjoyable at the same time. You’ll also find a new welcome video for HomeBodies and our 5 Steps to Welcome a New Season to Your Home so we can enjoy summer with more intention.

This week I’m preparing a fun decorating inspiration video that will be in The HomeBody House this Wednesday on how to get Summer House style in the home you already have!

I’d love to have you join us as we create our sanctuaries this season!

Today I thought I’d welcome summer by sharing a few little scenes from around our house over the past few weeks as we transition from spring to summer here at home.
