Happy Mother's day


I'd like to wish all the Mom's in blog-land a very special Mother's day!  May your day be blessed with the love of family & friends.


This year for Mother's day I am going to the garden center to get some flowers for my garden with my husband.  I will wait and plant them next weekend when the weather is warmer.  We are having dinner out then going to see a live country band for Mother's day.  How are you spending your day with your family?

Magnolia Cottage Gardens

This afternoon I set up a tea party in my garden.  My friend Peggy from next door came over and we enjoyed some chamomile tea and tea cookies while watching my chihuahua's chase each other around the yard. I am sharing some photo's of the garden tea party today!

Tea Time

There's nothing better than tea in a pretty tea cup and a romantic magazine to enjoy a lovely afternoon!


Fruit designed teacup with gold trim and Romantic Homes Magazine







Crisp salad with egg garnish to go with your afternoon tea.


Watch your garden grow!
I planted some seeds in these cute terra cotta pots.  I placed them in the window so I can watch them grow.  I thought this tea pot with the little bird goes well with the planters.

My girls love to go for their walks at Wilson's Conservation Park.





Beautiful views along our walks with all kinds of birds and wildlife.






My girls love car rides.


After their walks they love to curl up and have a nap.

Thanks for visiting Magnolia Cottage.
