~~~I Forgot To Show You!!!~~~

I don't think we have stopped since we have moved in here. Right now we, and by that I mean Joe, are BUSY doing landscaping. We choose the bushes etc. together but HE does all the planting.He counted yesterday and so far he has planted 60 bushes and 3 trees!!!!!!!!!!!!!! He NEEDS a vacation and thank God we are leaving Sat But that is not what this post is about. I decorated the morning room for Spring when I did the kitchen but forgot to show you!!!. So here are some shots I took tonight. The theme is birds, birdcages and NATURE! This birdcage is new this year. I placed a large candle ring inside to look like a nest and a large, carved wooden bird sitting on it.<br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjwfrWQKsGfj0QQW1nT1-letK-h0g9GcnmravCeIW8VahM6u69Lp7VpAuHXWoVmoGcviRzdhMZ4xrzMFHI7YahzWXfCvbddgaYmojFcXEDrEyWQR4jQP8tnDsyxQ5comVCiODDGqPRBGu8F/s1600/IMG_0402.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjwfrWQKsGfj0QQW1nT1-letK-h0g9GcnmravCeIW8VahM6u69Lp7VpAuHXWoVmoGcviRzdhMZ4xrzMFHI7YahzWXfCvbddgaYmojFcXEDrEyWQR4jQP8tnDsyxQ5comVCiODDGqPRBGu8F/s640/IMG_0402.JPG" width="480" /></a></div> There is a sweet bird on top.

~~~A Beautiful Housewarming Gift!!!~~~~

Hi everyone! I know I have been MIA, but we had houseguests all last week and kept VERY busy. Joe's sister and BIL came up from Fl. to visit us and see the house and see some other relatives too. They brought us some wonderful housewarming gifts and this is what I got!!!!! I REALLY love it. It is actually a bird feeder but I decided that it is way too pretty to put outside and maybe get ruined.<br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhSkEvZRVVrktm5LubOe4vqK52G6Vpn09KROjAVGiF0nZ1hDEKTKDPEPD_GOL6qaEXCi0ve85RYxjbcBEwmLwJAnQzFW0sJYoY60W6ckrSspfyDwjLllifOBk1wEm47h0bw4qCPGkgyKGnY/s1600/IMG_0377.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhSkEvZRVVrktm5LubOe4vqK52G6Vpn09KROjAVGiF0nZ1hDEKTKDPEPD_GOL6qaEXCi0ve85RYxjbcBEwmLwJAnQzFW0sJYoY60W6ckrSspfyDwjLllifOBk1wEm47h0bw4qCPGkgyKGnY/s640/IMG_0377.JPG" width="480" /></a></div> So, I thought it would be a beautiful WELCOME to anyone who comes here, used as a lantern! The little hole in the back is perfect to place a tea light inside and it is all cut out so the light shines through so beautifully! I thought I would look for some kind of stand with a hook on it to hang the lantern. <br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgJmPF3MJX_um_FZwhFIoPNMMwre4dlwz1qrczRdQ0DBhndAuk3LBf7Z7SJlqYYxbnM2tqMilUbAAnVQ22hgPq9xDM7JRiT4HNbrb55zG9M4ogLuS4sHOXLokhW-_gMpTqZYin8r9JTRRbT/s1600/IMG_0378.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="480" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgJmPF3MJX_um_FZwhFIoPNMMwre4dlwz1qrczRdQ0DBhndAuk3LBf7Z7SJlqYYxbnM2tqMilUbAAnVQ22hgPq9xDM7JRiT4HNbrb55zG9M4ogLuS4sHOXLokhW-_gMpTqZYin8r9JTRRbT/s640/IMG_0378.JPG" width="640" /></a></div> While at Lowes today, I spied this!!!!

~~~Dinner with Family and Friends!!!~~~

Hi my friends! I know I have been MIA but we have house guests. Joe's sister and Bil are here from Fl. for the week and we are keeping BUSY! Last night our daughter and SIL came here from work and Joe's cousin, Bonnie came over and my best friend, Wenda. It was a full house. We had a very simple dinner: grilled chicken, potato salad, fruit salad, greek salad with greek dressing and deviled eggs and baked beans! It was all yummy but the best part is spending time with loved ones. I set a pretty simple table and thought I would share. I started with a plain white tablecloth and layered on my green and white placemats. <br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiohZCC0UlY4Z8n60epkzK5NQz03zYuocX7ZQAVrnr-oe0vE6c3GZtYCW1Bq1NNwfnWcb7zYDRAcr2gOnGmRFrKKTioNs_nWDtxD_yHPXLRSb4i-vWJ9BTEri25CZH1mGf3AoHXCC8wp7YW/s1600/IMG_0351.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="480" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiohZCC0UlY4Z8n60epkzK5NQz03zYuocX7ZQAVrnr-oe0vE6c3GZtYCW1Bq1NNwfnWcb7zYDRAcr2gOnGmRFrKKTioNs_nWDtxD_yHPXLRSb4i-vWJ9BTEri25CZH1mGf3AoHXCC8wp7YW/s640/IMG_0351.JPG" width="640" /></a></div> My embossed white dinner plates then a black and white salad were layered on top.
