Sunflowers

I am linking up with Fishtail Cottage for Cottage Flora Thursday.
I am enjoying being outside so much during the summer months. We planted sunflowers in our garden and they have been so pretty this year. I love having them up on our porch so we can enjoy them.


My guy and I spend hours out here just sipping on ice cold tea and watching our chickens.

He added a cover over part of our deck and it has made it so nice. I found an old gold chandelier and painted it bright red, it is the perfect lighting for this area. This is just one of my favorite places to be day or night.

The bees are busy doing their job.

In the garden.

We always love watching our chickens while we are outside. They are so funny, each one has its own personality.

White Wednesday

I am linking up with Faded Charm's White Wednesday.
I have an old chippy mantle and am not sure where I should put it. I have had it all over my house. Now it is in my living room. I am sure it will not stay here long.

I made this burlap banner today. It has been an easy project.

I have a collection of white pitchers that I have picked up while junking.

I hope you all have a Happy White Wednesday!

Fun At The Farm

A friend gave me this rooster that sings and dances, Urijah thought it was so funny

His first trip out to see the chickens.

He is checking that egg out.

Happy Memorial Day!

Happy Memorial Day. It has been a fun day with our grandbaby. We are just loving spending time with him. We got him a wagon and we think he loves it. Hope you are all enjoying your day.

Old Chippy White Window

I am joining Faded Charm's White Wednesday.
I am sharing one of my old chippy white windows. I just have this one hanging in my hall. I added an old crystal door knob to hang a wreath on.


I have old windows all over my house. I just love the fact you can do what ever you want with them. Some have words on them , some are used for doors and others are used for frames.

I leave them just as they are most of the time with the exception of one that I painted black.

I hope you all have a Happy White Wednesday!

Pink Saturday

I am linking up with Beverly at How Sweet the Sound for Pink Saturday.
It is dreary outside, we had a good rain last night and it is just a good day to sit around and sip hot tea from my favorite teacup. I love looking at all my old magazines, the pages are so worn I have looked at them so much. I never get tired of it.

I am sharing my favorite teacup, and sweet little spoon.

I love the little flowers inside the cup.

Hope you all have a Happy Pink Saturday.

In The Garden

I am joining Fishtail Cottage for Cottage Flora Thursday.

I remember when we would go to my grandmother's house, she always had a garden full of vegetables and fruit. It was always fun to go out and pick the peaches and eat them right off the tree. Now that we have a grandson and one on the way I hope they can have fun memories of coming to the country.

Baby tomatoes

Blackberries planted in our garden. I can't wait for a blackberry cobbler.

A baby peach on our new peach tree.

Baby figs on our new little fig tree.

On any day you can find me out in our garden. I love just watching the vegetables grow. That is a sign I am getting older, just being happy with simple things.
