As I was passing through the town of Ferndale I thought I would stop in to Jensen's Ferndale Floral and check out what was available for a friend for a party.. I walked in and was surprised to find such a huge selection of flowers candles and gifts… and so much more! If you are looking for those little stuffed animals that interact on the computer called Webkinz they have them along with many other stuffed creatures. webkinz and more! Also what stood before me was a wonderfully decorated tree. Beautiful ornaments hanging there looking all sparkly and wonderful.  I wandered around the store to find just about everything imaginable.. Different  areas gave way to  treasures everywhere. As I was taking another look around I  grabbed an Advent calendar for my  girls.. Every year I  find one...

Ferndale Chamber of Commerce volunteers worked early saturday morning to get the Holiday Street lights up and ready for the Season. The weather may have been damp and dreary but the spirit is now shining!    Driving down main street Ferndale at different times of the year you will find the streets lined with either beautiful baskets from Van Wingerden Nursery in the Spring and Summer or our National Flag lining the streets for 4th of July and Veterans Days. . It is this community spirit that brings people to Ferndale.      The next big event is the Christmas tree lighting ceremony on November 4th at 5pm.  I drove by the tree being uprighted on Saturday at the Centennial River Walk. They really found a beautiful tree this year! Hope to see you there.

Have you been to Ferndale, WA lately? Nestled in the Pacific Northwest just about 6 miles north of Bellingham and only 13 miles south of the Canadian border on the I-5 corridor. Ferndale is quickly becoming a desired location to call home to many Whatcom county residents. It's quick commute to Bellingham is a huge asset. More reasonable housing prices make it attractive especially to those who want to get more house for their money. Amazing views are abundant here. Mountbaker and the Twin Sisters are a sight to be seen in all their majesty. Bay views are available for those who desire coastal living. There are even a few homes that encompass both amazing views. Ferndale, WA has in the past couple years, undergone quite a transformation. Nice walk ways down the Nooksack River, nice new c...
