The Flower Lady Visited......♥️





Isn't receiving fresh flowers one of the nicest things in life?
The joy of preparing them for their different vases...
Which...took some choosing...
Trimming off the bottom leaves...
Giving them a good cut...with proper tools...
Peeling off the outer petals, that may be a bit tired...
Placing in your rooms...stepping back...admiring...
Ahhhhhhh...that looks better...
The Flower Lady gave me enough Roses...
To place some on the Dining table...
In my  sweet rabbit Vase that my brother Tom gave me before he died...
I have shared it with you many times...
And...whenever I have flowers...
One or two blooms, always make it into that vase♥️
Into our Family Room...on the wee table beside the fireplace...
Where we can enjoy them in the evening...
And...last..but not least....in the Living room...
Which..is finally back to normal...well a few weeks now actually...
But...with none of the Christmas decor left behind...
I gathered my Snowmen...Elves...Santas...and Mice...
And tucked them all away until next time...
I love when they are out...
But also love when they go back into hiding... tee hee hee!

And...for sure...I love when all this mess is cleaned up for another year!!
There was snow when I got up this morning...
And...it continued to snow   all  . day  . long!
Not too many pics today...a few thru the windows...
But tomorrow...
I hope to be knee deep...with our Miss V!
She will have that shovel in overdrive...and...perhaps...
We can...make a SNOWMAN!!
Maybe...have to check the snow out first...may not be packing snow...
But...
WE WILL SEE!!
By the way...
RED has been snacking on the pumpkin seeds all week...
He would grab a mouthful...and run like mad...to...? 
Crazy little guy!!

                                          ~~~~~~~~~~~~

Hope that you all had a great day...
Did you also get snow??
Ours is still falling out there...and blowing around...
Perhaps some big drifts in the morning...

                      Enjoy your evening...

                           Cheers!  :o)

  4. How lovely to have a flower lady in your life. Those are such a beautiful colour and so nice to have enough to occupy a few different spots. Gorgeous! Love the snow, although it tends to disappear quickly in the city. Hope you're enjoying a cosy evening.

  7. Those roses are so beautiful. I can almost imagine their aroma. We got snow, but it's the blowing and white outs that cause the problems. Hope you are inside and warm! -Jenn

    No snow here... yet. We were supposed to get some today, but it passed us by. I'm just as glad. I don't like to drive in snow. Have fun with Miss V tomorrow. Hope you can build a snowman.
