Time to Unwind


Even though the temps are very low and the wind is blowing, I can’t stay inside when my pretty pink tree is blooming.


It is packed with blossoms now.



Mr. Fun has been working round the clock and needs a place to unwind, and I know just the spot.


Here he can pay some attention to his lovely wife 🙂 me.
That’s my seat.



He likes cheese with crusty bread and grapes.  



And a little vino.



These tulips are my only ones in the yard so far this year!  



Mr. Fun planted these bulbs for me a few years ago.



These double ~~ peony style tulips are some of my favorites.



Our wine glasses are  
~~Lenox Tulip~~


I added ~~ him and her ribbons ~~ from my stash.



The back windows of our bedroom look out on the tree



and through the branches you can see the table waiting



with a warm blanket nearby, 
very handy for snuggling with your honey 🙂 in this cool spring weather.


Everything is ready–now 
I hope Mr. Fun comes home soon.

Real men are okay with Pink.  In small doses :)!
