A Summer Celebration , red, white and Blue!

Welcome! Hoping you are enjoying summer, if its gardening, swimming or just a lazy hazy quiet afternoon. When I think of summer I think of red white and blue, icecold watermelon, ripe red cherries, swimming, sweet tea, lemonade , fireworks and the list goes on.

I went to the garden and cut a small sunflower for today. Most are towering over 111 ft. Just love the smiling faces but they are cute when they tower over and fall into a deep sleep.

The wine box holds a white metal flag some burning red leaves from a huge plant I have outside, the little metal garden cart is a Decor Steal find, it holds some patriotic fabric balls


The dishes were just plain white that I painted and stenciled

The sunflower was the smallest from the bunch.




This flag was crocheted by my great grama susie, it is well over 50 yrs. Old. I take it outevery year to display.




Whats summer without cherry pie?








Fried green tomatoes, a southern staple!

Thanks so much for visiting!

  1. How fun to get into your living room and see what you've been up to in there. I "pinned" one of the photos of your sofa, because I fell in love with your pillows. I'm delighted that you are enjoying the simple pleasures of summer. I have a small sunflower patch coming up near our bird feeder that the birds where kind and planted there for us. They are only a couple of feet tall but growing. Weren't the little birdies sweet to plant them there, we can view them from the front porch:)
    Thank you for your blogging friendship and for your sweet prayers and wishes.
