Where Teddy Sleeps

This is our bedroom and it is where little Teddy sleeps...right up against the middle pillow. When I look out the window my view is of a 110 year old Farmhouse on Church Street here in San Luis Obispo.
That is little Teddy's baby bear and a bacon flavored chewie.

I saw this lamp post on QVC (my favorite t.v. station) and ordered it the other day. It is solar and comes on when the sun goes down...and I LOVE it. It sits right by the door coming in from the garden to the kitchen. And YES ! I got out my scarecrow. I got him 2 years ago at Michaels and I just couldn't bear to toss him out after the season. So I saved him. And brought him out the other day. He is tattered and worn...but I just love him.


Went to Miner's Hardware yesterday and just couldn't pass up these zinnias. They look so mid-summer to me.




Sunflowers












I set the flowers up on an old table by the side of the kitchen door.




I LOVE this old apple box. I have had it for years. Holiday Apples from Lynn, Mass.

  2. I would say that Teddy is living a dog's dream of a happy life.

    Your flowers are lovely, summery and happy looking.

    Great solar light and how neat that you are enjoying your scarecrow.

    Enjoy the rest of your summer.

  20. All looks lovely in and around the blue farmhouse.

    Wonder why peeks into anothers life is so refreshing?

    Did Teddy dig his meatloaf? I would have loved it.

  21. Little Teddy has a snuggle bear! How sweet! He has his own place in bed and a soft pillow. He is so blessed to be with you.

    Love the flower and scarecrow!

    Sending love & huggies, magnolia

  22. Yes, I checked out the lamp post on QVC and I am mulling over whether to buy it or not. I am sure I would love it, and -how nice- three easy payments. If I decide to spring for it, I know just where it is going to go.

    Enjoy your weekend.

  23. Of course, that's where Teddy sleeps! Winslow likes to either sleep between us or by my feet, which really shortens the bed for me. He's a good bit bigger than Teddy. In the summer, though, he gets too warm and sleeps mostly on the floor. Love those flowers!! Hugs, SIlke

  24. If I had that apple box I would keep it forever and ever. It's just the sweetest.
