Spring Fluffing

Are you getting your home ready for spring? If you need some ideas, head on over to Rhoda's Spring Fluffing Party at her blog...Southern Hospitality.

I am so happy that spring is almost here!! Our pansies are sure loving the sun too! They are looking so pretty now!


Have I told you that I LOVE spring & summer?? Well, I do! I adore it!! We live on the lake and every fall they lower the lake about 10 ft so we lose the lake in our backyard until March 10th when they start bringing the lake back up to normal level. It is so nice to see the lake again in our backyard! Here's a photo of Callie that I took tonight. She loves to go fishing from our dock. Our cat & dog even enjoyed the spring evening air!

Our Cat Lola aka Kitty
She kept turning away everytime I went to take the picture...figures!


I can't wait to take our boat out on the lake! We bought it last summer and have spent so many great hours together on the lake with our girls. Looking forward to another fun spring & summer!

There's our little one ...Callie on the tube being pulled by the boat...what fun!!

Oh, and there's my hubby...the captain of the boat.

I haven't started planting any flowers in pots for our deck yet, but do have some big plans for the deck. Our deck is large (40ft X 14ft) in which we have a hot tub, outdoor dining table and I would love to add something like this....

I would love to have that and use one of the outdoor rugs that we sell.

Then I could have another area to decorate with lanterns, candles, pillows, etc...yeah!!!

Ok, let's head on in to the house. I added pussy willow branches to a vase and created a spring time display. (I know the nest needs some eggs...I haven't had a chance to get to Hobby Lobby yet) I will add 2-3 little blue eggs to the nest, I promise.

Happy Spring!
