Snow at the Homestead!

Love how the snow glistens on the architectural details, making then stand out even more!

Here at the Brayton Homestead,  our house particularly shimmers with this lovely white coating in the recent snow storm. Historic houses like ours, built in the Federal period, have architecture that features clean simple lines and are symmetrical in design.

Thanks for visiting the Brayton Homestead...

Santa in his sleigh

Santa is coming to the Brayton Homestead. Some last minute touches in the mudroom. An old carriage seat I picked up this summer along with some suitcases. Can you ever have enough suitcases?

Yes, this is how long I have had my wind up singing Santa

from my dear Dad.
