Dreaming

Image courtesty of Country Living via Google Images
Living in frigid and snowy Minnesota, it will be quite some time before I can look forward to a picnic like the one pictured.   But when our snow does melt, look out! 

 My china and picnic basket are awaiting!  
 And you are invited...

(My brother-in-law built me a very lovely pergola last year, it is also waiting patiently for us..   And thanks again to Kelly for his skills.  And his patience with his crew!  My own hubby would not have been quite so cheerful with me : )

  1. You're back to blogland! I love that picture too. I'll dream right along with you. I don't know what it is about blue but I've really been liking that color lately too. Can't wait to see the pergola. Now about that invitation......

    Hugs...Tracy :)

  2. Oh you lucky girl you...I have put my order in for a pergola, but I think it might be a wee while until I actually have one to call my own...and your tea party looks divine. I can't wait for the warm weather to come.
    Oh my word...OH, HOW I WOULD LOVE a visit from my two favorite girls...the beds are fresh and ready to go!...in the mean time, we'll enjoy a VIRTUAL tea party in your beautiful garden...xoxo...Rosie

  4. Save me a seat!!! I wanna play! that photo is gorgeous and I would love a picnik like that but you don't fool me, I know you would totally out decorate that setting any day! I still want to convince Duane that moving all of the furniture ourside so that we can have a croquet party is a good idea!
