FRONT DOOR DECOR

Well Mardi Gras is almost over so I have to take down my front door Mardi Gras deccoration. Since the forsythia and tulips are already blooming here, I made this for my front door. Of course I used the fake blooms, but I do have the real thing blooming in the garden. This basket is kind of lime green color-don't know why the color changed in this photo.What are you giving up for Lent? I have so many bad habits, it is hard to decide. I am joining http://www.bunnyjeansdecorandmore.blogspot.com  for Wednesday Bunny Hop, and Kim at http://www.savvysouthernstyle.blogspot.com  for Wow Us Wednesday.

SPRING FEVER

I am in the mood for spring, so I pulled out some nests and one of my bird plates.I love these plates.

I filled one of my apothecarys with moss rocks and a small birds nest in the other.I went back and added another book, I thought the plate needed more height.Of course I love my bird cloche. I am joining Marty for Tabletop Tuesday at http://www.astrollthrulife.blogspot.com.

WHY GOD INVENTED MENOPAUSE!

The hubby and I kept the great grandson on Sunday while his parent's were househunting. He looks happy here, but he spent most of the day crying.

The is is only the second time we have kept him. The first time he was all smiles and giggles and sweet kisses.

He puckers up his mouth like he is saying ooh!!!Watching t.v. with Pop. While I enjoyed every minute of him being here-even with the crying-I now know why God invented menopause. What are these 50  and 60 year olds that are having babies thinking!!!

AN OLD FASHIONED VASE OF FRESH FLOWERS

I picked a bouquet of flowers from my garden before all the rain today could beat them into the ground. My house smells wonderful! There is nothing that smells better than hyacinths in the spring, after a long winter. Not that we have had much winter here, but still.This is a very old vase, but I like it  for displaying different flowers.

These are the old fashioned hyacinths that smell sooo good. I wonder if you can still buy these bulbs or if they are a pass along plant now. I have divided mine all over the garden, in case they decided not to like the spot I had them in. I have also shared with friends. I certainly would not want to lose this bulb!

The rose colored hyacinths are not old, but they sure are pretty.I am joining Marty for Tabletop Tuesday at http://www.astrollthrulife.blogspot.com I am sure there will be lots of beautiful Valentines tables, but I have never decorated too much for that holiday.

I took a road trip yesterday to visit a friend in the Delta. These are a few photos I took on the way.

These are in Canton, they have some beautiful old homes. John Grisham's A Time To Kill was filmed here, as well as My Dog Skip based on the Willie Morris book.
