Patriotic Displays and More!

Hi my Prims,

I just wanted to show you a few pictures of my homestead with some Patriotic displays and some goodies that I put in there spot from my swaps that I have done!!
Next week I am going to show you all my perennial gardens, they are breathtaking!
I really love working in my gardens and smelling the flowers and seeing them come up every year and then I do take alot of them and transplant them in other gardens. Mr. Hillcrest opened up our pool and I can't wait to start using it. We grill all summer long and have a fire pit and make smores around the fire. We really enjoy the summer!

So, back to my Patriotic displays, I am VERY PROUD to be an AMERICAN!!!!!!! For all the men and women that gave their life for us to have our freedom it is an amazing gift! God Bless their families!

Here is our flags on our kitchen table!!
Here are some close up pictures.

Here is my new lantern that Hubby spotted and we bought it. I just love it so much!!!! It is on our dry sink!

My good friend Jen sent me these GREAT prints and I love them. It was

a swap we did awhile back and I wanted to you all to see where I put them.

Here is another great prim print, isn't it AWESOME!!!!

Thanks again Jen!!!!!!! It really made my hallway Prim Perfect!

I love my little star made from a flag, NO I didn't make it, but I love it!!!

Here it is all together, I love tweaking and changing things up.. This is what I do and enjoy every minute of it!

The full view with my prim U.S.A flag!!!!!

A full view of the kitchen. I feel this is the heart of our home!

I changed up my stove board! You can do so many things with your stove board and for every holiday! I just love it.

The next picture is a close up of my strawberries!!

Another pic.

 I have my cheese box, my big huge basket which I love and inside that huge basket is an old basket and inside that old basket is a prim cat that a friend made for me and a prim doll that I bought.

Here is my old salt glazed jug that I bought and LOVE!Also did you see the Patriitic pillow as well.

Here is a close up picture of my new jug!

All I can say is I LOVE it!!!!!!! It just brings me back to the simply time of life. There is so much history when you buy something and sometimes the person that sells a certain piece to you has great information about that certain piece and that really makes it worth while.

Another picture of a flag!

My flag in my prim box and a stackable Patriotic boxes.

I think this picture tells it all.

Another pic.

This picture shows the cranberry scooper that we bought!

A closer look, on the side of the cranberry scooper which I should have taken a picture of it shows the cranberries on it. It is just a beautiful piece.

More Prim U.S.A flags in my crock, which you really can't see my crock but it is there.

This is a long post of pictures so if you need to get a cold drink and come on back that is fine. I will wait........

Great I see you all are back. Here are some more pictures.
