2014 Memorial

Living near Camp Drum we here are aware of the suffering  of the families . every day for our soldiers who are fighting for our freedom.

Our town is so proud of our boys. We have flags on telephone poles all over.

I went with the white dishes so they would show up better on the striped placemats.

Why is the bear the star? Think of it. If the beasts of the wild are free why not every human.

Goody tiered dishes for the sweet tooth.

Inflated  ball just for the fun of it also supports the bear

I made the napkins added bow and star.

Notice the tableware in red white and blue.

I am as patriotic as the next one but we need a change. The rich get rich and the poor and middle class get poorer and poorer. Money is the root of all evil. Think before you vote .http://betweennapsontheporch.net/

Memorial Day table

spring table

Today the temperature is in the 70's. Maybe it"s here to stay. It has been a long cool spring.  I might even eat lunch on the deck. The yard is still looking bad. 

I thought of lilacs and had the perfect tablecloth. The yellow napkins I used for place mats give it a more cheerful combo.

thrift store find. A candle holder.

Close up love birds. I have some birds in my bird houses. It has rained so much the poor things are having a hard time keeping dry and tending to babies.
