Hello and Happy Pink Saturday! Please visit Beverly and stop by all the Pink Saturday posts!

I am just a week away from my return trip home – I am happy that I will be returning to my husband and dogs, but I will miss my friends, both new and old, here in San Diego. I’m packing and shipping all my stuff (since I’ve been here 6 months, I’ve accumulated quite a bit!)

So, let’s take a break from list making and packing and look at a few pale pink pretties.

This was at the most recent Barn Sale: pale pinks: in the pillows, the flowers and the depression glass. So pretty coupled with the white chair and table, don’t you think?

Also at the sale: I love this desk – white on the outside, then a hidden pink surprise when opened. That is such a neat idea.How I wish I could have taken it home! And there is that pink purse again! (It was in an earlier PS post of mine.) Check out the frou-frou shoes on top of the desk! See the pink tole trash can by the desk?

And these pretty flowers – don’t they look like roses? They aren’t. I got them at Trader Joe’s and can’t remember their name. If anyone knows, please let me know! I think they are beautiful.

I am saving up some Barn Sale photos for future posts. I’m afraid there will be no more Barn Sales – I will be back East where Shabby Cottage Chic is not as prevalent. I will have to go on a shabby quest, won’t I?

Have a great weekend!

Not long after we moved into Mockingbird Hill Cottage, my father surprised me with this painting. He had painted it from a photo I sent him. I am lucky to have several of my Dad’s paintings, but this one may be my favorite. He knew what a dream come true it was – finally living in our own home – and this painting is priceless to me. Happy Fathers Day, Daddy. I love you always.

Happy Fathers Day to this guy – my husband – the father of Scout and Riley. He is the best Dad and has taken over all the care of our babies while I have had to be away. I’m coming home, soon, honey – you’ll get a little bit of a break. I love you.

Happy Fathers Day to my father-in-law, Lee – my brother-in-law, John, my brother-in-law, Ron, my nephew-in-law, Steve and two of my nephews; Eric, who’s first child is due in August, and Jeff, who is the proud Daddy of a new Pomeranian puppy. And Happy Fathers Day to all the loving Dads everywhere.

Pink Saturday is here again…please stop by Beverly’s blog and visit all those participating. If you saw my previous post, you know that I visited Vignettes again this week. I happened upon some wonderful pink things that I will share with you.

Have a great weekend!
