Ready For The 4th Of July and Summertime Fun???

Happy Wednesday!!! It is hard to believe that in one week it is The 4th Of July!!! I am feeling less than ready for it. I love to decorate the outside of my house, but we have been so busy, I haven't gotten around to it. The clock is ticking. Our town has a parade that the kids participate in and then a big party at our local park with fireworks and lots of fun. This year my son will be in the parade on a decorated truck with his baseball All Star Team. They have so.. much fun with water balloons and water guns...oh to be a kid again.....
Do you love to decorate for The 4th of July??? I also love to keep up the red, white and blue theme through the summer. To me, the colors just say "SUMMER IS HERE"!!! 
We recently added some great Americans/ Summertime items to our Etsy Shop
Come take a look, you may find something you can't live without.......
Love this Americana Pillow . The flag on it is vintage
I have this Bunting made with vintage hankies hanging on my umbrella in the backyard. How cute is this?? Mmm........ it really is perfect. This really adds a special touch to a backyard BBQ.
What says Summer more than camping??? 
This Pillow is made with a vintage American flag. Perfect pillow for your front porch.
More Bunting. These have become a new favorite thing of mine. We have other styles other than the patriotic ones. They are so cute on a front porch, backyard, kitchen etc..We even have some pink and blue ones that would be so...perfect for a baby shower. I wish I had one to give :))

I can't end this post without saying "Happy Birthday " to my son Blake who will turn 12 tomorrow!!! He has grown in to such a wonderful young man. I could not be more proud of him. I LOVE YOU!!!

What is more American than baseball?? These next few pictures were taken at his LL All Star Game on Monday night. A comeback win, awesome team spirit and Blake even hit a HOME RUN!!!A great win for a bunch of really nice boys. We play again tonight! 


During the National Anthem..my guy is #32


Have a great week!!

Happy Friday

Yippee! It's Friday! I hope you all have a wonderful weekend. Ours is filled with baseball and more baseball. I am hoping to get another post in this weekend. We have some fantastic patriotic items coming to our Etsy Shop this week. I think you will all love them:)
Yes, these are from my garden. My garden is in a "transition" right now so I don't have too many of these beauties right now.

Welcome to all of you who have recently started following my blog. And thank you to everyone for all  the sweet comments. I love to get them. They make my day.
Until next time...
