Spring on the Back Porch and Patio

I hadn't shared any photos lately of our outdoor spaces.  We added on the covered porch and patio a few years ago, and they have become two of our favorite places to spend time.

We are fortunate to have good weather most of the year here in Georgia. We get some cold throughout the winter, but a fireplace and gas heater add warmth on those chilly evenings.



I added just a few Spring touches out here, a bit of greenery and lots of candles for night time ambiance.  In all honesty, I have a love/hate relationship with the TV out here.  I could have done without it, but the Hubby really wanted it and I do enjoy it part of the time.

I really enjoy being out here early mornings listening to the birds in the quiet.  It's especially nice on a bright and beautiful day!  I love a slow and easy morning out here on our back porch.
It's my "happy place" to begin and end each day!





This patio area next to our covered porch is a great spot for sunny mornings! It's also a great spot for planting pretty flowers, and attracting hummingbirds!
It's often a work in progress, because just like decorating inside, I like to make changes outside too!

My coffee mornings out here are a wonderful start to my day with the sights, scents, and sounds of nature.
This is just after I planted some new annuals. My clematis vine was just beginning to bloom its pretty purple flowers, and the grass greening up beautifully after dormancy.

I created the iron trellis wall as a blockage for our precious golden retriever who thinks he is suppose to cut through the planting area.(insert *eyeroll* here)  Well, not so fast boy, I've found a way to put a stop to that and make it pretty at the same time!  I like the way it turned out and it surely does the job!

It's a beautiful sunny day today so I feel the need to go enjoy it outdoors, I'll be out here doing just that!


Have a great day!
