Haverford House,,,Marcy with a "Y"

I am looking for the definative place to enjoy this Awesome 16" Ferris Wheel I won from Marcy at http://haverfordhouse.blogspot.com/

Thank you so much Marcy!!!!! I love the card,,,also, it really turns and swings.

Marcy with a "Y" is so talented, and has been refinishing furniture lately. Right up my alley,as of late.I guess "M's" think alike.

I hope you will visit her blog, and see what she just did!

I have been busy getting settled, and watching alot of home a garden shows on TV.  Now that spring is totally here, our attention has turned to the new yard, and we are having a vege garden for the first time in alot of years. Should be  interesting, wonder if I can remember how to can, wonder if it will be worth it. It does bring out the neighbors so we can get to know them, as many of them have gardens too. I am more of a flower container garden gal, but I am looking forward to putting in some Crepe Myrtles pretty soon, just to get started. They are my favorite southern plant, as they flower so long.

My southern gentleman brought this brass and ironrod bed end home yesterday, a friend gave it to him. Isn't he just is a keeper!

So,,,Marcy,,, how should I refinish it??? Or should I? Any ideas would be appriciated from anyone.

I hope you are all having a lovely Spring Sunday. God is Good.

The Feathered Nest, A Wonderful Giveaway!!

Dawn is celebrating 1200 Posts & 400 followers with this sweet giveaway.

Dawn is such a generous angel.

It is a Gift just to know her.

She is also "My Fairy Blogmother"

On our first phone call, Dawn said "you will love haveing a blog, and meeting new friends,,,,I will introduce you and help you get started". I call her Mamma Bird, she encouraged me, loaded my chosen background and banner, and walked me through many things I needed to learn. It was confusing and scary, but with her patient guidance, I tried my wings, and she smiled. I know she is still there and would welcome me back in the nest anytime. She has a way of folding her soft southern wings around you. I love you Dawn.
