My Mom had the cutest little fence sitting in her backyard..not being loved. Janae spotted it first, but I called it first that I wanted it. (sorry Janae) :)
It started out looking pretty worn out and I brightened it up.
I wrote "Sit a spell" on it, which all of my kids (including Janae) say they don't know what that means.
I love the little birds on top!
I think my front deck is looking so pretty--the flowers are blooming well now that summer seems to finally be here!
It is the perfect weather for sun tea--my favorite!
I finally got this little table painted white.
Yesterday Janae was here with all her animals. It was such a fun family day. Our house looked like a pet day care center. Here is Billie sitting in the window. White Persians go so well with my decorating:)
Janae and I found a cute cat scratching post at Goodwill. The kittens love it! They are sleeping in it now as I write this. Janae of course got some darling photos, being the pet photographer that she is.
My first Eden rose has bloomed! I am so excited. I don't know if I could like a rose better than my David Austin Wildeve..but this Eden rose looks lovely! I have wanted this rose for years!
It has a little rain damage--but I think rose time of year is here in Oregon now:)
Got these little wings from the etsy shop of Rosemary. She made them with clay and they were only a few dollars with free shipping--got these for me and one for Janae too. For those of you who know Rosemary you know these have to be oozing with creative energy. So sweet!
Hope your fourth was safe and fun! Our windows felt like they were going to break because of the fireworks--but all is well now!
Thanks for visiting!

You take great photos Sandy. Thanks for stopping by my blog and commenting on my Pink Cotton Candy chest of drawers
The fence turned out so cute. Love the perky little birds. Your rose is gorgeous. We used to live in Oregon, almost 30 years ago.
Adore those kittens!

Adorable! The cats, table and Mom's fence...I laughed at sit a while! I said on my blog once "I got on the band wagon" and a reader asked what a where it was LOL!

I LUV that fence, Sandy. I'm so glad you like the angel wings. They look awesome with your bottle. Thanks for the mention.
How lovely the fence came up,and your porch looks beautiful. Your kitties are so adorable too. I am just showing my 14yr old Granddaughter your lovely blog and kitties. Also Janaes.xx
Yours and Janae's posts are always so much fun. I love that you live near each other and have similar likes and tastes. I thought Billie looked a little wistful. Have a great weekend.
I"m so glad you were able to save the little fence and make it so pretty. It will be fun to "sit a spell" right there...maybe after one of our walks. Glad your whole family is having so much fun with the kittens.
The fence is just fantastic and your porch looks so charming and inviting, a great place for sipping that sun tea.
Billie is just as handsome as can be and those kittens are just adorable!
Your pictures are all wonderful. Have a great weekend!

I love that piece of fence, Sandy! That turned out so pretty. Your flowers look great. It has been so hot here {103 yesterday}, I'm not sure my watering is doing any good! I am always amazed when I see Janae's pictures of the fur babies. I don't know how she manages to get them still enough to get the picture. I love the one of you with the kittens in your profile!
Ok those photos of the kittens are adorable!
