Joyously Living Life

Been living here for a few years now and the garden and patio are finally looking full and lush.  I am so happy with the way my plants are filling in.  I try to do mostly perennials so I don't have to do too much planting each Spring.  This is the gate...

She is so sweet.
She and her friends live just down the street in the buttercup pasture.
This is my hard working neighbor plowing the fields for planting.

Hello Friends~ ~ ~
I know it's a bit late for this year.  Most of you have your tree up for this season.
I wanted to share with you how I wrap my Christmas tree in ribbon.

If you have a Lenox China Outlet Store near you and you love their Butlers Pantry pattern as much as I do.  Git over there right now girls.
Yesterday while stopping at the outlet stores I spied a big white tent in the Lenox outlet parking lot.
Now in my mind a tent means Huge savings and I was not disappointed.  I wasn't shopping for china but I have been drooling over this pattern for years....
