Sharing a few Santa scenes in our Florida home. He came to visit us in Punta Gorda, Florida

Merry Christmas, Everyone!

Dave, Kim and Gracie with Santa

Today, I am sharing a few Santa and Christmas scenes in our Florida home.  Santa came to visit us in our Florida home!  He thought it might be warmer in Florida than at the North Pole but….

This year, he was in for a big surprise! While we don’t have snow in Punta Gorda, it is rather chilly this morning!  It is in the 40s.  We are expecting a high of 51!  Brrrrrrrr!  I will be wearing layers… lots of layers!  A parka and a puffer and boots!!

Blue Tote used as display

I decided I liked the top photo better!  The blue cubby works great set on its side as a way to display my collection of vintage Santa mugs and china Santa boots.

My Dad bought this battery-operated Santa on a Reindeer for me one year when he came to visit me when I lived in Cincinnati.  I think he was on his way back from a church mission trip to Red Bird Mission in Kentucky.  He bought the reindeer at a truck stop.

This reindeer was the  muse for the retro makeover for the lanai.

Today marks my official blogaversary, and this yea Today marks my official blogaversary, and this year I’m celebrating the little fragrant leaf that launched my herb‑loving life. Scented geraniums were the spark that started it all — from herb shows to teaching classes to rediscovering them here in Florida. It feels like coming full circle. 🌿💗

Seventeen years ago today, I volunteered on the Ex Seventeen years ago today, I volunteered on the Extreme Makeover: Home Edition build in Philo, Illinois — a day that still feels as vivid as ever.

From prepping pots at the shop to seeing the landscaping come together, to standing off to the side during the reveal… it was one of those rare experiences where community, generosity, and purpose all collide in the best possible way.

There’s a photo in here of me with Will and Debbie — two wonderful people who volunteered alongside me that day. Will always wore those sunglasses; I still can’t see the sunglasses emoji without thinking of him. Both have since passed, and that picture has become a little treasure from a day we shared together.

I added a few newly rediscovered photos to my blog post this year, and it reminded me how meaningful it was to be part of something hopeful and lasting.

I pulled together this simple patriotic vignette with vintage touches, soft blues, and a few gentle pops of red. It’s amazing how a little fabric, a postcard, and a favorite finial can turn into something sweet for summer.

If you love soft Americana style, this one’s for you. ❤️🤍💙
