Playing In The Sunshine

I was outside thawing water out for the birds and squirrels this morning and decided I would pick

some things I had in the yard for a Christmasy bouquet…I cut cedar from a tree line,

nandina berries and leaves and  some varigated ivy

from the front porch. I also added some curly willow branches.

Michael bought me some pomegranates last week so I added them and got out some silver

pieces that I had polished this weekend.

I sat my silver coffee pot on a couple of recently painted mirrors and placed all of it on an old

sofa table that used to belong to my Mom (She would have

had a fit if she knew that I painted it white and distressed it).

Now I get to the fun part…lots of photos here of my little vignette…of course

I should have been getting ready for a dinner meeting for tonight but

geeezzzeee the sun was shining in the window!!!

What fun I’ve had with this…at least I didn’t post all of the photos!!!

Skip on over to Bobbypin's Boardwalk,  Savvy Southern Style, Between Naps On The Porch and Tales From Bloggeritaville for some fun!!!

Southern Folks…

Once again I’ve been so fortunate to get a lot of wonderful shots

of a lot of wonderful Southern people

this weekend. If you’re looking for your photo

please continue to come back since it will take me some

time to get them all up.

I’ve posted many photos of events held at my friends’ Jackie and Lou’s home.

This weekend their home was featured on a tour of Christmas Homes in our town .

We all expected a hand full of people to visit

but were surprised to host around two hundred guests…

I didn’t get to shoot as many photos as I would like to have but

I sure got to visit with a lot of people that

I haven’t seen in a long time.

It was also so nice to talk to so many people who had known my parents.

Stockings were hung in the Library…

The above shots were of their breakfast room..

Now for a few “Peeps”…

I just loved this lovely lady and her fantastic hat!!! I could just see this

photo in my head!!! Mystery and beauty combined…

I’m joining Mary @ Little Red House for Mosaic Monday and Susan @ Between Naps On the Porch and Hooked on Houses and Be Colorful and Trendy Treehouse…come on over!!!

My Weekend In Photos

I have so many wonderful photos from this past weekend I don’t know where to start posting them…some dilemma !!!

I did notice that I had several Mother/Daughter –like shots so I think I’ll start there and just throw in other kinds of shots here and there…

 

The fresh veggie dip is called Southern Caviar and it is TDF…I have the

recipe if anyone wants it…

 

one last photo of that beautiful baby…
