Good morning! I hope this finds you doing well today. I wanted to post a few pictures of my home over the next few days. I have always loved my home. If I have money to spend, I will always buy something for my home. Due to certain circumstances in my life, I did not own my own home until I was well past 40. This is the second home I have owned and where I now reside. I consider both of my homes as gifts from God for without Him I would not have been able to purchase either of them. When decorating my home, I have this philosophy: If I find something I really love, I buy it and then know I will find some place for it in my home. The pictures I am showing today are of my sun room. This is where I drink my morning coffee and gaze out my patio door to watch the humming birds fly up for a drink of nectar from my feeder. Thank you so much for dropping by. Have a wonderful day! Vicki p.s. If you click on the pictures, you can see a closer view.

I love it, Vicki! I love it all but I especially love the duckies mixed in with all the pretty! That's my style for sure! ♥
Vicki, I would love to visit, have tea and chat with you. Your home is both cozy and very welcoming too. Just like you!! I have a rule that is very much like yours. If I see something I love, I buy it and find a place for it. Some people will not buy something unless they know where it will go. Finding the right spot is half the fun.....Char

Thank you Vicki for the wonderful Anniversary wishes you left on my blog via Marilyn's blog and I'm so glad you did because now I have discovered your blog and I think it's wonderful. And your home is beautiful exactly how I would like to decorate mine. We have been in our home now for almost a year and there is so much more to do as far as decorating but I know it will get done in time.

A Recipe for True Beauty
For attractive lips, speak words of kindness. For lovely eyes, seek out the good in people. For a slim figure, share your food with the hungry. For beautiful hair, let a child run his or her fingers through it once a day. For poise, walk with the knowledge you'll never walk alone.
In the end, a person is only known by the impact he or she has on others.
I am a romantic at heart. . .
Gratitude is the memory of the Heart.~French Proverb
Meet Miss O, sweet girl Olivia, my newest grandchild

Thank you for stopping by for a visit at Bunny Cottage!! It always makes me smile when you do.
Thank you for your sweet comments!! They always brighten my whole day!!
I am a retired schoolteacher after 33 years. I am looking forward to retired life although I will probably still tutor some at my school. I have seven beautiful grandchildren that I enjoy spending time with. My family and my faith are the most important things in my life. I am so glad you decided to stop and spend a little time with me here at Bunny Cottage. It is my heart's desire that I can be an encouragement to someone along life's way.
