Summer Days

Good Morning,

       Today is another sunny warm day here on the Island.  Although it is not summer yet and I am not rushing this beautiful spring away the name 'Summer Days' came to mind for these sunny day pictures.

Last evening as the sun was starting to go down I thought I would take a few quick pictures of the old swing and my bicycle by the tree.

I like the feeling of nostalgia these picture evoke of lazy hazy summer days.

I hope you all have a lovely weekend filled with the joy of the season.

I am joining The Rose Garden in Malevik for Saturday Show-off today.

I will be back tomorrow with a special pink post for Pink Saturday at How Sweet the Sound as it is the fourth anniversary of this popular party.

Take care,
Carolyn

Sweet Dreams

Hello everyone,

      It is a beautiful day here again and I enjoyed picking my first lilac bouquet of the season. I have been dreaming of lilacs for awhile now so I am pretty happy to enjoy their sweet fragrance and beauty once again.

I bought this beautiful cocoa pot down in Mount Dora on our trip to Florida. Whenever,I saw it I knew it was perfect for a lilac bouquet.

This mauve and white transferware tea cup looks charming filled with violas.

I bought a couple of new clematis for the garden because you can never have too many!

I love this hand painted teacup with viola's on it.

I   I took a little break from garden chores today to play with my camera - I have lots of ideas for photos shoots coming up soon but for now I think I will take a stroll through the garden and stop and smell the lilacs!

I am joining French Country Cottage for Feathered Nest Friday and The Charm of Home for Home Sweet Home and My Romantic Home for Show & Tell Friday today.

Thank you for visiting,

Carolyn
