It's been so long that I'm not sure if I remember
how to blog,
but we're home now,
in Ponte Vedra Beach, Florida!
R.H. bought the obligatory citrus tree, a lemon,
and I chose a houseplant that would have
looked weird in a TN valley farmhouse
but suits this Florida house.
I've put familiar things around.
And made a few appointments with new doctors.
We've taken time to enjoy the backyard view.
And the view from our front porch.
Now the sun is setting and we're tuckered out.
Honey, we're home!
Missed you all so much and hope to catch up with you soon!
What gorgeous views...inside and outside! I'm so glad you're getting settled in. I've been wondering what you've been up to, so I am delighted that you posted and gave us all a peek at your lovely new home. :-)
ReplyDeleteHave a very happy Mother's Day weekend!
How exciting, Dewena! A fresh, new start! I love your views, and the citrus tree sounds like perfection. Congrats on settling in.
ReplyDeleteWelcome back! Your new home looks beautiful. I'm looking forward to reading about your adventures in your new home.
ReplyDeleteOh! So happy you are back, Dewena, and I am thrilled for you in your lovely new home! Love your views so much--so relaxing. You are blessed! ... Debra
ReplyDeleteI was just wondering yesterday when we might hear from you again. Your plot seems full of the goodness of light. Are there any 'gators in the pond?
ReplyDeleteSo glad to hear from you again! Your new home has beautiful views. I hope you'll be sharing more photos of your new place with us, once you get settled and you're not so tired from the move.
ReplyDeleteGlad your home with a fresh start and lovely sun settings.
ReplyDeletethe offer still stands.

Dewena, I think your wonderful views are going to make settling in the new home...so much easier. I love how pretty it is there. Take your time unpacking and finding places for everything. Blessings to you, xoxo, Susie
ReplyDeleteWhat beautiful views you have! Your new home looks lovely. And so wonderful you can still visit your mountain house.
ReplyDeleteCongratulations Dewena, and hope to see more posts when you're a little more rested up. xo Deborah
Such pretty window views. Your new house is lovely and I look forward to seeing more of it later. I'm glad you are getting settled. Imagine having fresh lemons right off the tree. I'll be down for lemonade...I wish.
ReplyDeleteIt looks like a beautiful place to live, Deweena!
ReplyDeleteAnd you are already making it Home Sweet Home, I see.
Happy Mother's Day-Kim

A warm welcome back to blogging and many good wishes as you continue to settle into your new home.
ReplyDeleteYour photo's look so lovely, the views are just great.
Take care and enjoy settling in ...
All the best Jan
Welcome back! You've been missed. Your home looks fabulous, and frankly not what I expected to see in Florida. I suppose that area gets a little 'greener'?!
ReplyDeleteNow that I've gotten that out of the way, please excuse me while I get my muscle men to take care of Tammy. No way she's gettin' in on my spot ;).
Oh, Dewena, what a beautiful place to call home! And you already have it looking so cozy! It's good to have you back, can't wait to hear more about your new place.
ReplyDeleteYour new home looks so lovely!! I look forward to seeing more! Welcome home - there's no place like it!!
ReplyDeleteThere's no place like home! It was so good to see your post pop up and to know you're settled in your new home. Looking forward to more posts from your new southern home.
ReplyDeleteHello Friend,
ReplyDeleteI am so excited for you. I am looking forward to learning more about Florida from you. It is fun to learn about new places.
Happy Mother's Day,
Carla
Welcome back to blogland, Dewena. Your new home looks lovely. It always takes awhile to settle in, but having your own things around you helps. The pillow is so very charming!
ReplyDeleteSo glad to hear you're home now, Dewena. Florida.... that must be so different from where you lived before. Look at the view from your front porch, is that a pond? And your back yard looks green and groomed. Flamingos! Oh, those are Jess' favorite birds.
ReplyDeleteI hope you had a very nice Mother's Day, Dewena, and I bet it's good to be home.
love, ~Sheri
Oh Dewena, it's all so cozy and wonderful and I'm thrilled for you! Such pretty views and too, I can't wait to hear about your new adventures there! Blessings, Debra
ReplyDeleteI'm so excited for you, Dewena. A fresh start!

ReplyDeleteWow, what views! Welcome home, Dewena! Looking forward to hearing more about your new home, and the area you live in!
ReplyDeleteThank you for the Birthday wishes, Dewena. I went to the Zoo today. Needed to see some silly animals. :) I saw real Flamingos there. They are the most unusual and graceful birds. They fascinate me always.

I would say having citrus tree(s!) is THE reason to live there. I am such a citrus fan.
