Home * Sweet * Home


I think that all of the snow has finally melted and hopefully done for the season =) These are some photos of our home last Spring. I'm ready for the flowers to bloom!!! We have some Lily of the Valley along side of the house and a wonderful smelling Lilac bush in the back yard. There is also some Lavender in the front. I can't wait for all of those w*o*n*d*e*r*f*u*l smells. And I'm ready to get out my shabby, chippy vintage plant stand and fill it with PINK Geraniums and fill our garden urns on the front steps with more PINK Geraniums and haul my PURPLE chairs out and put them on our Veranda (LOL!) as Mike calls it...

Oh wow your home is just so beautiful!!!! It looks like the ones I cut and paste and wish to own one day, a gorgeous white weatherboard with lovely garden! I love lily of the valley, wish I could grow it properly! And nothing beats the smell of a Lilac bush. They are so beautiful cut and put simply in a big vase.... oooh now I want spring too!!!

Your cottage is a dream. I'm so envious! I love it. And that picture of your sweet grandbaby Ashy, all fat and juicy with his mouth open, asleep on some lucky person's shoulder.....*sigh* HEAVEN. THAT IS THE GOOD STUFF.

Just the kind of home for a Purple Flower Fairy! It looks like there is just enough room for a playpen for Ashy on the veranda! He can then admire and be admired too!

I am adding my pink and white peonies to your list of spring flowers that I am waiting for!
