SPRING FLOWERS



 
 
 




It is a beautiful day here in Pinson, Alabama.  To nice to stay indoors so I got out and got the
leaves out of my flower garden (that once was a swimming pool).  Then I came in and got my camera and took the above pictures of some of the spring flowers and bushes that are in bloom.  Daffodils, thrift, wild violets, and my azaleas and forsythia are starting to bloom.  To enlarge photos click on picture.

ST. PATRICK'S DAY DECORATIONS


Got this little wood leprechaun last year at Michaels.


Not sure when or where I got this hanging banner and door bells.


I got this at the Dollar tree.


Little mugs and cookie cutter I got at a yard sale many years ago.  The two wood shamrocks I had my husband cut for me and I painted them years ago.


This bunny all dressed in green was made and given to me from my daughter, Deann.


The shamrock and flowers were brought at the dollar tree.  The leprechaun and bear were bought at a yard sale.



Another yard sale find.


More from the Dollar tree and the bear and green mug were yard sale finds.



Decorations on my coffee table in the great room.


More decorations on the two end tables I have in my great room. 

I decorate for every holiday as you can see.  I do not have a whole lot for St. Patrick's Day and I am not Irish but I have fun doing it.

VALENTINE DECORATION

I have put away all my snowmen that I had up for the month of January now I have my Valentine decorations out.



These are on my coffee table in the great room.


Also in my great room.


One of my side tables in the great room the other one in decorated the same.


These decorations are also in the great room on my antique wash stand.



These are in the little room off the kitchen.



These are also in the little room off the kitchen.


The heart on my back door has lights on it.


This sweet bunny sits on my kitchen table.  She was made and given to me by my daughter, Deann.


In the kitchen I have this little white tree with hearts on it.   I use red decorations in my great room, kitchen and little back room.


I use pink hearts and flowers in the living room.  This arrangement is on the coffee table.


On my side tables I have the same decorations.


These pink roses and hearts are also in the living room. 

I have red hearts in all my windows  and a  red heart wreath on my front door.  I have decorated like this for years and will continue as long as I am able.

WELCOME THE MONTH OF FEBRUARY





"Freezing cold winds, biting chills, and white snow fluffed hills.   Valentines day, oh how gay!  Presidents" day is coming our way.   February, sweet and  small, greatest month of all.
                    ~Eric Lies~

"The February born will find sincerity and peace of mind; freedom from passion and care, if they the pearl (also green amethyst) will wear."
                    ~Author Unknown~

"I'm a little groundhog, it's my day.   Wake and stretch, go out and play.  Down in my burrow, down so deep, time to wake, from my long winter's nap.   Grumble, grumble, scratch, scratch, grunt, grunt, yawn.  I'll eat my breakfast in your front lawn.  I'm a little groundhog, it's my day.   Wake up and stretch, go out and play."
                  ~Author Unknown~

This year is leap year.  Instead of 28 days we have 29.  Hope you month of February is a blessed and wonderful one.
