Mom deserves a "Happy Mother's Day.....

Sunday - May 12, 2013 - Mother's Day

There are millions of moms who will be honored and very deserving of this special day.  Happy Mother's Day to all moms.   

When I saw the picture below via Pinterest, I immediately thought what mom wouldn't enjoy waking up in this inviting bedroom and served breakfast in bed. 

A bedroom... a sanctuary accessorized with a burst of color.  What an inspiration!

Serving mom breakfast in bed is just another way of telling her "thanks" ... a retreat for this special day.

Enjoy your day!

Colorful Spring

Happy Weekend to ALL!

I'm patiently waiting for signs of spring.  Until the weather forecast predicts sunny and warmer days, I welcome this weekend's forecast as a perfect time to day dream of what the spring, summer and even the fall holds for us.

Take a look.

and another look...

If you don't have a rose garden, what about a dahlia?  Just as beautiful.

It's worth the wait.
Thanks for stopping by.

Free, Freebies, No Cost

Welcome to Friday's Finds

It doesn't matter which word you use to define a bargain as no money was necessary.  Let's refer to it as Free Friday Finds.

As my sister and I were walking thru my neighborhood, we discovered a bargain.  It pays to take a stroll.

I was so excited when I saw 2 lawn chairs on the curb.  Wasn't sure if they were a "give a way" . 

Well, we completed our walk thru the community but I couldn't stop thinking about them.  I  had to find out if they were free.  For those who know me well, I love a bargain but didn't anticipate getting one while walking. 

After the walk, I drove to the street I saw the lawn chairs but didn't feel comfortable just picking them up as they appeard to be in excellent condition.  Little nervous but spoke with the home owner and he confirmed they were there for pick up and I did just that.  He even help load them in my car!

 Buy One Get One Free

This BOGO doesn't apply for these outdoor chairs.

 

Get 2 Free

It was G2F  (no purchase required)

 

 

 They definitely compliment the bench

 I purchased several years ago. 

My hosta plants are showing signs of growth.  Will share later as they reach maturity.

Thanks for stopping by.

What is your Friday Find?

I'm Dreaming of a Wrap Around Porch

A wrap around porch with rocking chairs is a dream come true for these cool spring afternoons.

Our home place had a large front porch with the rockers and the porch swing. I can recall playtime with my siblings sharing the swing. My fondest childhood memory of  our front porch is my parents enjoying quiet time whether dusk or dawn.

Dreaming of a wrap around porch which provides me the same benefits and more!

When I lay my head on the pillow at night I can say I was a decent person today. That's when I feel beautiful.

April Showers Bring April Flowers

Azalea scrubs and dogwoods trees have very beautiful April blooms.   I try to enjoy every moment by spending time in my garden. I know they are both short lived.

 Just wanted to share portion of my azalea garden and dogwood trees. 

The weather forecast is more April showers for the weekend.  The rain is welcome to wash away the pollen.  Cars, back porch and front porch are covered.

 

 

Interesting in seeing your April blossoms.
