la vie en rose
hi everyone, it’s saturday night and i just wanted to say hello to all my wondeful blog buds. life’s been great here and the outside world is not too bad anymore. life’s gotten simpler, everything from recycling to electric, when i got hot water the other day, it was like i’d never had it before i was so grateful. and i never thought i’d care about grass, but have to admit i’m thrilled to see its buds after a long day! watching this pattern blossom is instant gratification. my own little versailles, and so easy! ;p
anyhoo, over next door you know who got this beauty as she preps for a hot tub
amazed me and hung this up
and got us both bird feeders.
we just got back from a midnight bike ride and barbecue. we’re having a ball being 16 again! buona notte!

Was there a sleepover involved? Smores, pizza, pedicures, dress up?
Seriously, I love, love, love that outdoor shower you put in-clever girl!

How lucky you are to have a friend that you can feel 16 with. It’s amazing how comfortable we can be with those friends that have known us since we were “children”. Those are my most genuine and cherished relationships. They can disappear for 10 years and when we see them next it’s as if we’ve never been apart.
Good luck and have fun with your new Home.

I just love the pictures you post. I know you don’t live in Key West – but so much of it reminds me of my visits to my parents down there.
