Pour Vous

Just for you ~ a little spot in the shade in my garden. Wishing you all a little mini~vacation this weekend. To dream. To do nothing. To gaze at flowers. To drink some Tea. To read a chapter of a romantic book. To listen to those you love laughing. To enjoy life!




I hope you will enjoy this weekend, before you know it, the days of summer will start to wane.

Thank you for your beautiful weekend wishes! As we are finishing off a week of painting exterior woodwork, our weekend may not be as relaxing as you advise, but the house will be in a better shape when we've finished! Have a wonderful weekend yourself.

Oh my gosh - what a lovely spot to sit in! I'd love to read a book this weekend {or at least a magazine}.

Eileen,

I love this little bench. A few years ago, a neighbor behind us thought she was moving and had a big sale. I bought the bench and a few other things, and walked around the {big} block with the bench on a dolly, it weighs a ton! Later she didn't move, and I gave her back everything else I bought, but she allowed us to keep the bench since it was so very heavy. You can't see it, but the bench "legs" are rabbits!

Thank you, Lidy, for these beautiful summer wishes! I REALLY needed something like this!
Your shady spot is gorgeous, and the cushions too.
Have a great summer,
