Hello Spring!

Finally looking like we might actually be done with winter!

 

I've been dying to get back out on the front porch and enjoy my morning cup of coffee as neighborhood kids head off to the bus stop, moms gather for a quick hello, and dogs play amongst it all.

 

It's such a pleasure to get a bit of work done while basking in a warm spring breeze and sunshine.

 

Even our cat Roxy wants to escape from her indoor confines to enjoy the wonders of Spring.  So happy to shake off our winter coats and at long last relish the change of temperature!

The Front Porch is Open

Come on In!

My husband power-washed 3 inches of pollen off of our front
porch this weekend, therefore, I thought it would be a good time to throw open the doors and invite you all in for a Camilla martini.


Our house is easy to find ... just look for the fish mailbox ~
For those who come early there's usually a fresh baked cupcake awaiting their arrival.


The bleeding hearts popped open this weekend,
the dogwood tree and azalea bushes are putting on their springtime
finest - so everything looks lush and green.


The bottle tree survived our harsh, windy winter with just
a few minor catastrophes, that were quickly replaced.


But, now that it's officially Spring - Our bungalow is
ready for warm weather visitors!


Please, come on up the steps ~


And walk right on in ~


If you collected beach shells on your way over -
feel free to place them in the glass jar or ~


Throw them in the wire sand bucket.


Grab a Camilla martini - they're quite delicious and low-fat.


Have a seat on the sofa so you can welcome the neighbors as
they stop by for a drink.


There are plenty of glasses -


and a few resting stops for the birds.


I'll leave the porch light on - just in case you run into traffic!

Hope to see you soon.
