Meet me under the willow tree…
A beautiful outdoor space has always been a big part of our home. For starters, our house in Florida was small so the additional living space was a necessity there. The house in Kentucky is much larger, but we still knew that we wanted and needed outdoor living spaces. As much time as we were…
