I have a new friend.
She has made her home on my front porch.
She stays there all day every day.
She never says a word.
She just sits.
I decided that I should spruce the place up for her a bit.
Give her some new things to look at.
I hope she liked the Hobby Lobby carrots that I added to my boxwoods.
And, the bows I added to my lantern and bunny.
She never flinched as I added polka dot ribbon to my lanterns.
And, chevron ribbon to my topiaries.
I wish she could have told me if she liked my bunny wreath better.
Or, my burlap carrot wreath?
No, it is not my dog.
It is this precious mama bird.
I have NEVER seen her leave this nest!
I have plans for her nest when she has moved on. . .
I hope she likes her new porch!
Life to the full,
Melissa

Great porch, love all your Easter goodies. New? Don’t know where you find time to keep your home up so nicely, blog, be a Mom and Wife, everything you do. Love your nice sized front porch.
Cute dog too, love the scarf. I gave up putting scarves on Tommy or his coat. He goes out and finds ways to get them off. Guess he thinks he’s too big for baby stuff, lol.
You always fix everything up so nicely. I miss our wonderful front porch on our house in KY. I had an arbor at the steps and kept it decorated for the seasons. Each side of arbor had planters also. Sure wish I could have brought that arbor with us. Ah well. Life goes on. I grew sunflowers one year and they came up past top of porch. Things grew like crazy there.
Happy Days Melissa
Your front porch is so pretty and so is your little visitor. We had one in a tree in our front yard. One of her babies fell out of the nest and we managed to get it back in. She and the baby birds stayed pretty close to the house for several months. They are such pretty birds. Thanks for sharing! Have a great weekend!

Love this! So cute and festive for easter! Thanks so much for linking up to Monday Funday!
It’s all so pretty and welcoming! I love those carrots — perfect way to dress up the planters. Don’t you love it when the birds nest and leave you their homes when they’re all finished!?
I love your spring porch decor! I just found to of those metal carrots at a thrift store this weekend and they are on my front porch too! Great minds!
) That little mama bird is so sweet and I’m just sure that she’s loving all that she now has to look at!
