Happy Pink Saturday!!! October 10, 2009
Hello, dear friends, welcome to another day of perky pinks!! As always, I would like to thank Beverly from "How Sweet the Sound" for so graciously hosting us each week. It has been a cool, rainy day here in Central Texas. I even got to wear my Texas Longhorns Snuggie that my niece gave me a few weeks ago. Some hot chocolate also tasted delicious in this cooler autumn weather. The pinks I am showing today are from around my cottage home and garden. You see two of my favorite rose covered plates that hang in my living room. In the third picture, you see a vintage valentine covered in pink roses and a pink and blue vintage plate. These hang in my bedroom. In the next picture, you see a little vignette of some of my favorite things: a heart, a rose covered teacup, an apothecary jar tied with ribbons and pink roses around the top of the jar, and a vintage free standing picture of children and a rabbit pulling a cart. The next two picture are of some pink zinnias and roses in my garden. If you look very closely, you can see my gray kitty hiding among the flowers (you can click on any of the pictures to enlarge them). The last two pictures are vintage images of children. I love the way the little girl is posing for her picture. I do believe I am addicted to vintage images. I can spend hours looking at them on various internet sites who so graciously share them with us.
I am so glad you dropped in for a visit today. I value and cherish each one of you and the friendship we enjoy. Please visit Beverly and all of the other participants for Pink Saturday. You will be glad you did. You can find these participants here: http://howsweetthesound.typepad.com/my_weblog/

Hi Vicki! Those plates are so beautiful - I so love hand-painted plates with lush flowers. I always love your treasures. I have a feeling I would go a little crazy looking at everything in your home. Happy Pink Saturday!
Hi Vicki, even tho I am not a part of pink Saturday, (simply because I dont have the time to devote to it)I know there is ALWAYS something pretty to look at on your blog~ and of course I am drooling this week on the plates!

Hi Vicki,
Those rosey plates are beautiful and I think I'm in love with that teacup and saucer. I love seeing the things that you love. They put a big smile on my face. Don't you love seeing what others choose to live with? I find it fasinating. Your flowers are beautiful. I think I'll go have a good cry now...for mine are done for this year.
Hugs,
June
I love everything you've shown. The little rabbit pulling the cart is adorable and the blue flower with the pearls is so pretty...your post today is just awesome. Happy Pinks and have a wonderful week.
Hi Vicki, I loved seeing the beautful things that you have in your home! The little praying children figurines are precious! I have the same Lady Carlyle teacup...isn't she pretty?

Dear Vicki,
Your Valentine of young lovers kissing is adorable darling. I love your informal garden; so much more difficult to achieve than a structured, regimented style.
Spotted your Kitty too (smile).
oh, those are gorgeous pinks!!! hope you had a wonderful day
I love all your pinks! I see you're in Texas too, me too! I live in Garland. I'm enjoying the cool temperatures, but boy this rain has GOT to end! Happy Pink SAturday! Suzie
Your gardens are beautiful! Mine are done and covered in an inch of snow : ( How I would love to stroll through your gardens and soak up the beauty of them. You have a wonderful gift!
Hugs ~ Nichole
Vicki, thank you for visiting my blog today and leaving your kind comments. I know where you can get a tea cozy! LOL!!
Your post today is just lovely. I love those plates, they're gorgeous! The way you put your treasures together is beautiful . . . I could sit and look forever with a nice cup of hot chocolate!
Thanks for sharing and Happy Pink Saturday!

What a sweet pink post filled with roses, they're just about my favourite things:)
I just love your Pink Saturday post. Gorgeous roses and more! I didn't make it around yesterday as we were going much of the day but wanted to stop by and wish you a happy happy day! Hugs! Coralie
Hi Vicki, Loved all your pretty pinks....especially the pink zinnias and roses. I am thrilled that my pink zinnias are still blooming and still growing strong. I had to stake them the other day they have gotten so tall. I hate to see the frost get them but until then will pick pick pick. Happy Pink Saturday.
Hello Dear Vicki!
Another lovely Pink Saturday! I love all your pretty pink pieces, but I must say the pink roses took my heart.:o) I see you also have pretty pink in your garden. A beautiful Pink Saturday, thank you so much for sharing it with us.
Wishing you a beautiful week.:o)
