Red, White and True Blue!!

I love the 4th of July!! It is the best birthday party of the year and makes you proud to be an American!! This year we celebrated on the Bayou!  My stars and stripes were showing…want to see???

I just love these colors!!

Found these great bandanas in the men’s department at Wal-Mart.  All cotton and great size for summer picnics.  Bought the blue and white too so you will be seeing them some more this summer! 

Recycled a couple of sake bottles for candle holders. Just the right color blue to go with my little flags!

An Old Glory Star to add a little bling.

Started out in the side yard under the arbor because the weather has been so hot but the table wasn’t large enough and I do miss the bayou view!  Maybe next time….

Hope your 4th sparkled!

Till next time….Santé,

Memorial Day…Lest We Forget

The official start of summer!  If you are a warm weather person, it doesn’t get any better.  Because we live in a community with a large military presence, this day to remember the sacrifice of those who perished to insure our freedoms is even more evident. Ours was a quiet one this year.  Lots of yard work and time together. 

I have always been a big fan of primary colors.  And red, white and blue is about as good as it gets.








Recently found these fun red salad plates on the sale rack at Kmart.  Think they were calling my name. 

Love these blue wine glasses from Old Time Pottery!

Stars and Stripes coastal style!  Decided that some beach stars would be a perfect accent for my Memorial Day table. Hope y’all had a beautiful weekend.

Till next time….Santé
