Blooming

 

Grace took these pictures today of the first few tulips that have bloomed in our new spring bulb garden! We ordered an assorted mix from Wicked Tulips Flower Farm last year and cannot wait to see what kinds/colors come up! xo

Today's Bouquet

On Monday's we cut flowers! xo

On My Birthday Eve

These gorgeous flowers and lovely book are from my soul sister/birthday twin Jannine for our birthday tomorrow! The girls and I had a wonderful time going to the flower farm today to pick up this sweet bouquet she ordered for me. The farm is about fifteen minutes from our house and run by the sweetest family. If anyone ever needs a gift idea for me I would always be happy to have a bouquet from Five Fork Farms! And I am looking forward to getting lost in this book as soon as I am done reading the Rachael Lucas book that I am currently working my way through! Thank you Jannine for always making our birthday so very special! xo

At The Dairy Farm

It wouldn't be holiday time without a trip to Cooper's Hilltop Farm for the best ever egg nog and a visit with the farm animals! xo 

{This Moment} Making Strawberry Ice Cream

{This Moment} A Friday ritual. A single photo - no words- capturing a moment from the week. A simple, special, extraodinary moment. A moment I want to pause, savor and remember. Wishing you all a wonderful last weekend of June! xo

Strawberries

As far as June days go they don't get any more glorious than this! xo

A Sweet Saturday

There is nothing quite like the scent of maple in the air outside, followed by the final boil and lovely scent inside! Our three little trees gave us one quart of syrup this season. Not too bad considering those unseasonably warm days we had mixed in there, too. We're actually thinking that we may tap every other year instead of every year in the hopes that we would be able to make more than one quart of syrup during the season. xo

{This Moment} On The Scale

{This Moment} - A single  photo capturing a moment from the week. A simple, special, extraordinary moment. A moment I want to pause, savor and remember. If you are inspired to do the same, leave a link to your 'moment' in the comments section for all to find and see. We wish you a lovely last end of October and a very happy Halloween to those who celebrate! xo

A Summer Bouquet

We are so happy to once again be part of a flower CSA. Getting to have fresh flowers in the house (twenty stems a week for the twenty week CSA season, nonetheless) really is such a lovely treat! xo
