I live in a tiny southern town with my husband and our two precious daughters. We love the simplicity of country living, so we sold our house in the city a little over two years ago and bought an 80-year-old home in the country. I count my blessings every day for my sweet family and so today I thought I might share a simple evening outdoors at our farmhouse.
Thanks again for having me, Anita! I hope you are all having a wonderful summer!
You have made a very pretty table in lovely surroundings. Your hydrangea blooms are stunning, such rich colour.
Veramente incantevoli queste foto!!!! Bacetti JERRY
HI Anita! What a wonderful post your little guest put together. So beautiful in her snaps and her words. Just so lovely and now I’m craving pancakes! 🙂
I’ll be coming to your Christmas in July party!! 😉
Be a sweetie,
Shelia 😉
How beautiful and if it wasn’t so hot and humid here we would enjoy the outdoors more. Those are the bluest hydrangeas I have ever seen.
What a beautiful post. I love Hydrangeas. The color of yours is so vibrant and lovely.

Hey Andrea. Your table setting looks beautiful and so inviting. You do a wonderful job of making sweet and pretty memories.
I’m a big fan of Keeping It Cozy, too. What a lovely outdoor table she’s set for her family, and right now, I’m craving pancakes!
Hi Anita, thank you so much for inviting me to guest post here today on your lovely blog. I hope you have a wonderful week!
Your girls are precious, and so are those hydrangeas. Wish you could send me a bouquet to look at while I’m staring at four walls in my bedroom after surgery!

Making memories. It looks like a lovely summer evening.
Sweet post and beautiful pictures of your family, flowers and outdoor meal. I love eating outdoors. There’s something special about it. Thank you for sharing! Hugs, Leena
Such a beautiful post ~ I love Andrea’s home and her outdoor table setting is just dreamy!
What a lovely evening! I LOVE pancakes for dinner!!! I make them as often as I can get by with it.
Andrea, What a beautiful post! I love your simply elegant everyday style! What precious girls.
I think your decision to move to the country was a wonderful one. We live in a rural area and I would not leave for all the glitz of city life… the sparkle of the fireflies are far superior!
I am running over to Keeping It Cozy to follow you!
Thanks Anita for introducing me to Andrea!
Andrea,
WoW!!! What a precious time spent together with your family after a busy day!!! Being surrounded by the things you love, family and treasured heirlooms from family members makes this a memorable tablescape, indeed! I’m with your daughter…I L O V E pancakes…any time of the day!!! Thank you for sharing your lovely family with us!
Fondly,
Pat

Simple pleasures are the best! Your country setting looks so inviting. I’d be very content at this table. Love pancakes! 😉
I agree with your daughter, Andrea, pancakes for dinner is GREAT! YOur floers are beautiful and your daughters are adorable. Love that you have some vintage things to use. I will now run over to your blog to follow you. XO, Pinky
Eating all our meals together was the norm at our house while growing up. Guess I thought everybody did. I think sharing meals is an invaluable way to establish the bond of a family unit.
Beautiful photos, I love all that blue! The details are stunning!
Eating meals together is a very good thing for family unity =)

What a gorgeous, gorgeous post- I love it…so beautiful with all the blue and white and outdoor images. xo Diana
Simple and lovely! The Hydrangeas are beautiful! I love the use of blue and white; it’s so fresh and inviting!
Beautiful post, I really enjoyed it! I’d love to know more about the glasses you had on the table and where you got them?
What a beautiful post.
Your values and love of family were evident in every word.
I am off to visit your blog.

Another beautiful post, Andrea. Memories around the table are always sweet. I hope my adult kids will carry on with our traditions as well..

Hi Andrea, nice to see you here at Anita’s beautiful blog. I have enjoyed her blog for quite awhile and am enjoying yours since discovering it a few months ago. The two of you have similar styles so I suppose that is the reason I like both of you. This post is very pretty as usual. Your daughters are lucky to have such a loving and creative mom. See you next time at Keeping it Cozy and at Cozy Home Scenes. See you later too, Anita.
You are indeed laying a good foundation for your girls’ memories of family and home by having meals together. and yes! Breakfast for dinner rocks every. single. time. blessings, k
such a charming post, andrea! i love how much thought you put into your everyday memories–like i said…charming:) pics are pretty, too!
You have made a meal into a memorable moment. I forget sometimes how valuable those little mealtime conversations with my family are and how so many of my own childhood memories were shaped by times around our table each day. I am so glad you wrote this. It reminds me of the importance for parents to help their kids craft what will become their memories. You are right. It’s a foundation. This was such a great little story. PS: I’m with your husband on photographing a meal, especially outdoors. Not easy, but you did make it look effortless.

Your table setting is beautiful!LOVE those flowers too!
