Happy Tuesday! I hope you all had a safe and peaceful Memorial Day Weekend! Yesterday was unusually cool for the 29th day of May!
“He who dwells in the shelter of the Most High will abide in the shadow of the Almighty. I will say to the Lord, “My refuge and my fortress, my God, in whom I trust.””

Happy Tuesday dear friends. Spring is perfect for spending time in the garden, especially if it is teatime!
“A word fitly spoken is like apples of gold in a setting of silver.”
Proverbs 25:11
This post was originally published in the spring of 2018, inadvertently it somehow ended up in the trash file where it has lived for a couple of years. I thought it was time to retrieve and visit Spring Tea In The Garden once again!
“Tea time is a chance to slow down, pull back and appreciate our surroundings.”

A silver tray holds a vintage Alfred Meakin “Charlotte” transferware pitcher full of bright pink roses. More roses were placed in the sugar bowl and creamer. A girl can never have too many roses!!READ MORE
Happy Tuesday sweet friends! Spring has arrived in all of its glory. There is so much beauty to see and discover if we only open our eyes to the wonder of God’s creation!
“How sweet are your words to my taste, sweeter than honey to my mouth!”
Psalm 119:103
EM and EK both love books and are always thrilled for someone to read to them. I started reading to both girls when they were babies. When Ella Mae was about two I began reading Beatrix Potter to her and we started watching videos on YouTube of Beatrix Potter-The World Of Peter Rabbit and Friends. I enjoyed them as much as she did. We still watch them and she has become quite a fan of the 23 Original Tales. The Tale of Peter Rabbit remains her favorite and we are celebrating Peter in the Sunshine Cottage!
This past Christmas we bought Ella Mae a Gund Peter Rabbit! He moved from her bedroom to the Sunshine Cottage. He is the centerpiece of our little tablescape honoring Beatrix Potter’s most popular book!
The Tale of Peter Rabbit, published in 1902, was Beatrix Potter’s first book. One hundred and nineteen years later the classic tale of naughty Peter Rabbit’s escape from Mr. McGregor’s garden still delights children all over the world.READ MORE
