missing someone

Tomorrow is the year anniversary of losing my Dad. I told my sister that I'll likely be stuffing my face with chocolate all day. Which is totally the mature way of handling grief.  Because Oscar still points out Dad in pictures around the house, I reluctantly asked him the other day where Grandpapa was - curious as to the answer. He paused and replied that he was at Grandmas house....working. Which is likely how Oscar remembers him, sitting in his library, at his computer.The thought made me giggle and  feel sad at the same time.  Just a post today to remind us to celebrate life. xo Linds

Home Goods and Pier 1 Happy

I love shopping at Home Goods and Pier 1.  Last week I was in Home Goods and found this pretty wreath.  I love the springy look of it.

 

I also found this great big blue vase.  I love the color, love the size and the texture of the jute around the top.

I like that these items add a little interest to the corner behind the couch.

 

 

 

I love these carrots that I found at Pier 1. 

 

Here is a picture of our back patio from this morning.  I'm thinking that a backyard party is out of the question for a bit...

 

 

 

 

 

Thanks for your visit!  For those of you able to garden right now, I am officially jealous!
