Wasn't it a wonderful 4th of July weekend? I love when a holiday falls on a Friday or Monday, thus giving me three glorious days to fill with joy. My Show and tell today is a few pictures taken in my back courtyard. My back yard is small and entirely brick (no mowing!). It is so much fun to dress it up with flowers both annuals and perrenials. It gives me an entire extra room to branch out.in the Summer. My sister Liz and I like to entertain outdoors. The first picture is the breakfast Liz made my friend and I 4th of July morning. What you don't see is champagne and orange juice! In the picture with the sunflowers you will see a fantastic watermelon. What makes it fantastic? Getting it at a yard sale for $3.00!!! Down from $5.00. Now that is fantastic! The baker's rack that all our goodies are set on was on the side of the road a few years back. Absolutely free. Now that is fantastic too! Hope you all had a great weekend. Be sure to take a peak at the other blogs from the boutiques at Make Mine Pink (

Can I come for breakfast? LOL It looks so yummy, and your yard is just beautiful! Oh, and I am sorry you are having trouble letting go of some of our things. LOL. I tend to have that problem too when I shop from the ladies here. It's just means we have to shop more. :)
