Spring Dining on the Porch & Bradford Pear Tree's in Bloom



The big circular drive in our front yard is lined with  Bradford Pear tree's.     They put on quite a show in early spring when they are covered with white blossoms.   We always enjoy dining al fresco on the porch but it's extra special in the spring.    I put together a "slide show" for you guys sharing some of my favorite photo's of our spring porch over the years.    


As I was gathering up my photo's for the slide show,   I couldn't help but notice all the changes the porch has undergone over the years!




The Bradford Pear tree's have quit blooming in this photo,   but the snow ball bushes in the back yard are in full bloom.    I created big bouquets of them to line up on the mantel......


This year we had a small dinner party on the porch.    I served buffet style as I frequently do.......  



H & I like to have a light lunch on the porch.....just the two of us! 



Thank you so much for stopping by.....hope you enjoyed my "slide show"   hugs

    Thank you the nice slide show. I thought this area was in the back of your home and not the front. I pictured it just off your sunroom. That's what I get for not looking closer. The pear trees are so lovely. Across the street from my work next to a big building is a very large crab apple tree. It is just getting it's leaves. When it blooms it is gorgeous. Spring is so amazing. It is a reminder of all is new again.
    Thank you for sharing.

    So beautiful! I love how you were able to hang a chandelier from that beam you added.
