The little table runner is a thrift store find. I think the little lady is so cute hurrying with the tea and the kettle is still whistling!
Looking down from the deck you can see my four square garden, rustic gazebo, and potting shed.
Let's take a walk around the yard and see what is blooming on this beautiful day. My four square garden in the side yard is at it's peak right now.
That's my potting shed in the background all covered with ivy and hops vines.
The Ramblin Red rose climber is way up over the deck.
Nellie Moser clematis on the arbor.
Let's walk to the front of my log home. Lots of flowers here!
Love the Hollyhocks!
I hope you enjoyed the tour of my flower gardens. Summer is a magical time around here!
Thank you so much for visiting and I hope you have a wonderful week!
I will be joining the following parties: Make It Pretty Monday, Tea Time Tuesday, A Return To Loveliness, Tea In The Garden, Teacup Tuesday, Cottage Garden Party, Share Your Cup Thursday, Sweet and Simple Fridays, Home Sweet Home, Feathered Nest Friday, and Show and Tell Friday.

Oh my goodness, Nancy, I think you live in paradise. What a lovely home. Hollyhocks are one of my favorite flowers and it's so nice to see them in your post. I love your blue and white china. Your tea table is very welcoming and I wouldn't mind one of those muffins at all. Deb

Beautiful Nancy! I like your straw hat garden pick, how cute!

Your gardens are lush and colourful and the red rose in the corner by the tea table is gorgeous. Blue and white is such a refreshing combo to use on a tea table.

Dear Nancy,
That's a BEAUTIFUL garden! What a pleasant post! All the snaps make beautiful note cards.Enjoyed visiting your blog for the first time:). Saw your link at Martha's favourites.
Oh Nancy, I always just swoon when I visit your garden and tea. The blue against the red roses is simply stunning. Aren't you lucky to have your mom's blue onion dishes?? Your vintage topper is just darling. You find the prettiest things at thrift stores, I must say. Thank you for the tour of your yard, which looks like a little piece of heaven. xo
