hydrangea plant it was blue.the last two summers it has been this lovely shade of lilac. is there something you put in the soil to change the color? i can't remember the name of what ever it is.... the roses are blooming finally. i think the guy that sprays the yard hit my roses bushes and kind of stunned them. glad they made it!

hope your 4th of july
weekend was a good one. ours was kinda quiet....that's ok tho,no complaints here. i tried to finish up a few things around here. i hung these frames on the wall by the bookcase but, as i'm looking at it i think i need a bigger frame at the top. what do you think? changed the mantel a bit already....typical for me i know! ;0 i added the cloche and moved the white candle,that's all! :)

run the 5k race saturday morning in rr!that way we got to see them both but,missed seeing my sweet b-i-law bob tho....blayne did well in the race. look at her,she always has a smile for her auntie with the camera! she has it all figured out,even after running and it was hot, she smiled for me! love that! thanks honey,for "getting it"!
lots of memories this weekend too. had to drive by and take a photo of uncle charlie's barn.i always thought this was such a cool barn. it's in much need of paint these days, unfortunately, but you can still read the "vans" and that is part of the charm.

a mish mash post
today....i painted this basket and put these flowers that i have had for several years in them and hung them on the front door. getting ready for the 4th of july,i used to have americana all over my family room and when i changed things out i hung on to some faves,so i could decorate for the 4th. glad i did! my mom made this little dress for me a(very)long time ago and it had chocolate ice cream all over it and she was not able to get it out. so it got packed away stains and all. well, the other day i was thinking how i would love to have my sweet pea's picture taken in this dress too and put both our photos in a frame together so i hauled the dress out of the cedar chest.i talked to my neighbor lady about the stain and she said try oxy clean and hot water,soak the dress over night as she had a similar experience with a coffee stained tablecloth that had belonged to her mother.
i thought why not,not really thinking the stains would come out but, they did!!!! i'm so pleased i can go on with my plan of kaylie in this dress! i can't wait....
