A Front Porch and a Church Pew

My little home 

is the typical 1960's ranch house

with a concrete slab

as a front porch.

Remember the bench-

a pew from the church

my daddy started?

It looked like this...

ABC gum and all..

Yes, this could have been me:)

I came home one day to find a

beautiful wreath on top of my junk.

What a delight!

A gift from a friend:)

Yes, I was jumping up and down!

Burlap and cotton, 

as my SIL would say, screams

"Rustic Elegance."

The Bench

Revisited.

I purchased outdoor pillows from Ebay,

and painted an old piece of wood

from my sister's junk pile.

Will add a pot or two of flowers.

Not exactly the idea of a front porch, huh?

Maybe when we move to Nashville, 

I'll have my front porch with a swing.

Even a back porch would be good.

Oh, shoot, any old thing is Nashville would be great!

Missing my babies tonight, 

Bonnie:(
