Gnome Your Independence

Standing on the sandy beach are three adorable little gnomes, each holds a treasure to call their own.

Balloons of red, white and blue, floating above their heads as fireworks are popping off all around them in honor of those who have bled. 

Down below, creatures crawl around in the sand that is filled with the colors of a patriotic glow.

Beach buckets to build sand castles are full to the brim while out in the beautiful ocean the dolphins do swim.

Grab your friends and head to the shore, stand tall and proud for this land that you adore.

Gnome your independence, honor it, cherish it, celebrate and protect it before it is no more….

Summer

Gently rolls the salty sea upon the warm, soft sandy beaches shore, where, there sits Summer in all her lemon yellow for everyone to adore. 

Shining high up in the sunny season's sky, gleams the tropical sun, heating up the season's sunseekers while they play and splash away the day, in the summer sea's fun. 

Pink, star-bright flowers burst out of window boxes as butterflies float along the salty breeze, while crawling sand creatures look to find their way back into the sea.

Some will surf and play, while others fish the day away.

After enjoying your time in the wild waves, Summer is packed with all the comforts to clear away the salty, sandy, waters that have washed over you. Also on display, you will find lemonade to keep your summer thirst at bay.

So open up Summer’s door, grab your sunscreen, towel, book or swimming suit, then spend a day at the edge of the sea…oh, how absolutely happy you will be!

Hampton Hedgehog

Breezes blowing and life's a flowing.

Swinging and swaying the day away is Hampton Hedgehog. Hampton seems to have found the perfect two, cotton candy, pink flowers for swinging his little prickly self upon.

I bet he spends a good portion of his day just dangling high up on the stems of these lovely flowers, as butterflies flutter about his tiny head. Each flap of a butterfly's wings give a small boost to Hamptons swinging. With all that extra help he could just be there all day.

Below Hampton’s petite toes are small creatures looking for a lift. Will he stop swinging long enough for them to catch a ride or will he just float along, singing a swinging, swaying song, spending his time enjoying the beautiful sun shining day?

I hope your day is filled with a swinging, singing, swaying song in your heart and that you find yourself floating on the breeze with warm winds gently flowing about your sweet petite toes, while butterflies dance around you with wings of fluttering joy.

Boot Bouquet

Passing April showers have brought along some beautiful spring May flowers.

There were days in May when we’d filled a small basket of blooms to leave at someone's unexpecting door or room.

Boots seem to have taken this place, filled with gorgeous bouquets that fill our pathways and patios with such lovely grace.

Flower filled boots stomping up a field of flowers to embrace the simplest of places.

Roses, daisies, forget-me-nots, lupine, and tulips just to name a few, but there are many more to choose from…oh what to do!

So find an old pair of boots and make them new, fill them up with the flower that sings to you.

Then place that beautiful bouquet of colorful May brouhaha out into the rainy day sun…letting the world know that May has just begun….

We need you when we first go out into the world.

We need you when the world feels like it’s spinning out of control.

We need you when the world is filled with surprises…good and bad.

Mother, there isn’t a day that we don’t need you, there isn’t a day we don’t love you.
