Living this sometimes Loblolly Life......

Good Morning girls...this is my front porch...we spend a lot of time out here ....especially this time of year....I thought this morning I would take you along as I walk through the house we call home...random pictures that will I hope give you a glimpse into  how I live my sometimes Loblolly Life.........

Let's walk through the front door...  they say good friends should ALWAYS feel welcomed at the back door....I wanted to have the experience of walking in this way.....

A counter in the kitchen that we use for "pretties"...this coffee pot is so sweet...we found it last year at an antique store just before we moved here....I thought it would help the kitchen look cozy...during this time of year I will change it up with pumpkins and tea lights..

I recently put this shutter screen in our bedroom...Terza's bed is right next to it...that's his favorite spot in the house...these shutters were purchased the same day I found the coffee pot...an antique dealer was fluffing up her booth...she was selling the 4 of these shutters for $7.00....I was shocked when I saw the sign...so I made sure she MEANT to sell them for that...she had brought new "OLD" shutters to replace these.....I was a happy camper...one day as I was moving things in the garage I thought "hey these would look great in our bedroom...I hope they fit"....they did...now as fall descends I will make some changes...new pic's will be forthcoming...

Geraniums...are one of my favorite flowers....now instead of everything being pink I find myself embracing RED...I think the brick on the house is a perfect back drop for this eye popping color....

This is my "sittin room"....the chair on the left is where you'll find me every morning posting on my blog...or visiting all of you...this is a perfect place to sit... the window looks out over the back yard...the birds are plenty happy as I look out ..singing all the time...swooping through the sky...playing with one another...I love it....I realized yesterday as I was thinking on things to be thankful for ...that I can always count on my love of home...giving myself permission to create ....looking differently at something  will always cheer me up...anything I can see in my minds eye ... I can create...it doesn't matter what kind of "MOOD" I find myself in....if I allow myself to move from worry or fear to a place where I'm dreaming...picturing the possibilities....everything seems peaceful....possible.....HOPEFUL...before I know it ...my mood has lifted...I am feeling myself again....what a blessing...I thank you so much for stopping by....you all have a wonderful Wednesday....I will too.......until next time...big hugs...Karena
