We have just returned from a short getaway and I enjoyed seeing the way people had decorated their yards and homes for the upcoming holiday.<br />I display flags in the house for the 4th and always have a few small ones tucked into flower pots outside along with the full-sized one that flies from the flagpole. <br />A group of realtors places a flag in the ground by all of the mailboxes in our neighborhood. It is a nice surprise and looks very patriotic as you walk through the neighborhood.<br />I have a few patriotic touches that I hope to post, if time permits.Happy@Homehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15748146424809856063noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4152193618785368659.post-87332304023723632192012-07-02T15:39:19.223-04:002012-07-02T15:39:19.223-04:00Your red frames are making me grin too!

I am in a rut with Picasa and need some new inspiration. <br /><br />The other thing that is making me grin today is rather mundane...exciting to me though! We are cleaning out the laundry room, which serves as much more than a laundry room in our farmhouse with very few closets. It accumulates a lot of--ummmm--"stuff" over a year's time. We are being rather ruthless as we try to restore some order and organization! I'll <i>really</i> grin when the job is complete! :DCheryl https://www.blogger.com/profile/00063844335185525553noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4152193618785368659.post-30218530198976751802012-07-02T12:29:11.735-04:002012-07-02T12:29:11.735-04:00Smiling here too.

This week, of course, it's the Canadian flag. On an everyday basis, we fly the flag of British Columbia. On a birthday we fly the flag of the province or country of the honouree's birth. As you can imagine, The Great Dane has a large collection of flags. We'll put up the Stars and Stripes on the 4th.Pondsidehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02407539138546412482noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4152193618785368659.post-89693960939982809982012-07-02T11:45:25.087-04:002012-07-02T11:45:25.087-04:00Love the red frames!

"Wasted" morning time spent in conversation with my visiting daughter. <br /><br />Still in PJs at nearly noon.<br />The two of us have solved all the world's problems over some blueberry muffins and cantaloupe. Life is good from our spot on the sofa. <br /><br />And I do NOT decorate in unexpected places. I need to.

I wanted to let you know that they made me smile, too! Until this year I've decorated the front window with a bunting. We put up the window planter and now I can't use the bunting there. I should look for them. The back fence would be a nice place to display them.

Our American flag flies all the time, but we put up bunting all over the front porch area before Memorial day and will leave it up till after the 4th! We're very patriotic down here in Texas, too! Also, being broadcast on the radio (don't know if it's a national thing) but everyone is encouraged to read aloud the Declaration of Independence at all gatherings on the 4th!
