I'm Back From a Sweet, Brief Holiday!

My Dears!

I do hope you've all been well. To all you fathers out there, I hope you had a most lovely Father's Day. Best wishes all around!

I know it's been almost a month since I last posted. Life has kept me busy...work-wise, and bliss-wise as well! I have loads of catching up to do, yet I'm still catching up with Mr. Knightley who missed me terribly while I was away with my fella on a blissful getaway to Lake George and Lake Placid.

So, hopefully I'll get caught up soon enough to post more often. I've missed you and I'm happy to be back in blogland.

We enjoyed a most delightful boat ride!

Oh..and by the way...I want to wish you all a most blissful Midsummer's. Enjoy the season..embrace the magic present in our lives.

Midsummer's Eve

My Dears,

Happy Midsummer to you all!

A wonderful day and evening was had in the company of dear friends. Celebrating Midsummer is a Harmonie House tradition and starting off on the eve of the solstice makes for a nice long celebration.

We planned for a day of music, food, and loads of fun. Naturally when you get four good friends together, laughter is the order of any gathering. We feasted on nature's bounty of fruit and veggies..oh yes, and wine. The music was lively, and spiritual.

We each donned flowers upon our heads and felt very girlish...we were sprites for the evening.
The weather was rainy all day, but that didn't stop us from gathering flowers for our Midsummer's table. My dear friend Joy was the first to head out in the rain to gather some flowers. Heather arranged the tea lights in the bowl then we all proceeded to add the freshly picked blooms.


Though the weather was misty at one point, we still ventured outdoors. Heather picked blooms from the rose bush and sprinkled us with the lovely petals.....a rose shower.


How delightful! We knew that the rainy weather would not afford us a view of any fireflies for the evening. However, we had our lovely Midsummer's Eve table set...the flickering candles and the lovely flowers provided a magical essence to the festivities.

We sang...we danced. We had loads of fun. We are so blessed to have these moments together...to be women and girls at the same time. To celebrate the seasons and celebrate life.
Happy Summer to you all. Embrace the special moments of your life..embrace those near and dear.


Most of all......do a little dance, make a little love....LIVE!!!

xoxo!
Miss Sandra
