Moving to Pemberley: Sunny Saturday

Sunny Saturday

Happy Saturday! It's great to see the sun out again today ~ especially after getting so much snow again. It's super cold out still, but at least there's sun! My plants seem to be enjoying the sunshine as much as I am... I've got blooms everywhere all of a sudden! It's making me crave Spring even more ~ particularly to get planting some containers outside!

Mulligan has also been loving the sunshine, especially ever since he's discovered how much he loves going on the balcony.

And, as always, he's forever getting into mischief...

Have a happy and sunny Saturday!

Oh, I know! I had to fill my living room and dining room with flowers to help me cope with the snow. I have the most fragrant pink garden roses on my table, a few giant white hydrandeas on my buffet, a vase of purple hiacynth bulbs that are to die for in my living room and a pretty white orchid which is new (they were on sale for $12 at Home Depot!).

I LOVE the hydrangeas and hyacinths in your room! Not only are the gorgeous to look at, but they're two of my favourite fragrances! And, lol, when I saw your new pics I thought to myself "oh wow, her orchid really recovered well!" haha Well, it's nice you got a new one (and a great price too!)

~* About Me *~

* I love to read! As you can tell from the title of this blog, one of my favourite books is Pride & Prejudice (though I love all of Austen's novels); as well as the Narnia series by C.S. Lewis. My other favourite authors are Lynn Austin, Laura Jensen Walker, Denise Hildreth, Francine Rivers, Randy Alcorn, and the wonderful C.H. Spurgeon.* I love to learn languages. I have been studying both Mandarin Chinese and Welsh.
* I love to be creative... doing a variety of things from cross-stitch, to puzzling, to making fairy houses, to beading!
* I love animals; especially my puppy!
* I love Wales ~ it's language, history, geography, everything! If I had to choose just one place in the world to go to, I'd choose Wales.

Last, but most importantly, I love the Lord!

~* Favourite Quotes *~

(C.S. Lewis)

~ "The only ones who accomplish great things that last are those who live a life not swayed by trends, but who hold fast to what they know are true."

(from Savannah from Savannah by Denise Hildreth)

~ "Although my memory is fading, I remember two things very clearly. I'm a great sinner and Christ is a great Saviour."

(John Newton)

~* Jane Austen Quotes *~

~ "A lady's imagination is very rapid; it jumps from admiration to love, from love to matrimony in a moment."

~ A woman, especially, if she have the misfortune of knowing anything, should conceal it as well as she can."

~ "I do not want people to be very agreeable, as it saves me the trouble of liking them a great deal."

~ "One man's ways may be as good as another's, but we all like our own best."

~ "The person, be it gentlemen or lady, who has not pleasure in a good novel, must be intolerably stupid."
