I am wishing you all a happy 4th and want to THANK all of our veterans and soldiers currently serving for preserving all the wonderful freedoms we enjoy. Since we don't have a deck yet:( I decided to revisit my table (one of several) from last year to help celebrate and show off our patriotism!!! I am so blessed to live in this country.  This table is FULL of patriotic love! The centerpiece is a vase of BLUE hydrangeas from my yard. I have been going over tyhere and cutting them, there are 10 bushes of them at the old house!!!! The white lanterns are very versatile. I placed a red votive in them for the 4th.<br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjztZAK83C_Vz3ypyi6BlBi7la0D-3fJbV-GqKnQqtdfeMjZN773s_VPcghHJrZ3fi2jARazKwEoUaWn7IftYOazqQ_RD_kKV0a7j280YTdUAPgI98NtbVERocddP3m1xQbkxT8J9t6P-Iw/s1600/IMG_7781.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="480" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjztZAK83C_Vz3ypyi6BlBi7la0D-3fJbV-GqKnQqtdfeMjZN773s_VPcghHJrZ3fi2jARazKwEoUaWn7IftYOazqQ_RD_kKV0a7j280YTdUAPgI98NtbVERocddP3m1xQbkxT8J9t6P-Iw/s640/IMG_7781.JPG" width="640" /></a></div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgld8k_nQ0JihBuszs7bGkcy-QCGegOIrK2Yw5KM1uuoCLAA-LZshP1_6sKx3vbRjOdaGrhkk_n6_nT4dmkwCAkSQU6S6idg4H2fo0ymdLiBMveXA13m4RCrRmMxGooJdOa6vmoZuzFaZk5/s1600/IMG_7782.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="480" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgld8k_nQ0JihBuszs7bGkcy-QCGegOIrK2Yw5KM1uuoCLAA-LZshP1_6sKx3vbRjOdaGrhkk_n6_nT4dmkwCAkSQU6S6idg4H2fo0ymdLiBMveXA13m4RCrRmMxGooJdOa6vmoZuzFaZk5/s640/IMG_7782.JPG" width="640" /></a></div> The glasses are plastic but perfect for outdoor dining.

~~~Time To Celebrate Our Freedom!!!~~~

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">HI and welcome!!!!!! I set this table last night while the light was fading then this morning took some more pictures. So, this post is picture LADEN! Hope you don't get bored:):) I cut some of my gorgeous hydrangeas for the centerpiece and placed a flag in there too. We used to have Monarda growing all over the place but it all died out, and that makes me sad, because it looks like red FIREWORKS!!!!!!!!!! It is a perfect flower for a 4th centerpiece. I also got these little buckets at Christmas Tree Shops and filled them with goodies!The table cloth is round but has no hole so we had to take the umbrella down for this table!<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh5WiyMj0iROS73p3c-Dc3_7S4GiBcj0cR33GEQKwGHfIsuUu9SWgdytJ8rbTNLmWvihKk_SuSx6ePxCu9smnc7TLlRC0vqi1s1BzWvd48pb-qmWS4gPoi_NALlbbT4scHsmyMfalaMu9Ra/s1600/IMG_7750.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="320px" /></a></div> Over the tablecloth I placed a red straw palcemat, a white charger, red dinner plate, blue solid salad plate, red star salad plate (paper) and the star appetizer plate. I love to STACK dishes.
