Pink Saturday and Tea in the Garden

Hello everyone and welcome to Pink Saturday with our sweet hostess Beverly ~ http://howsweetthesound.typepad.com/my_weblog/

I am also joining Bernideen for her Tea in the Garden ~ http://bernideensteatimeblog.blogspot.com/
My roses are finally blooming and I took some photos of one bush heavy with the fragrant flowers.



I love the look of the petals sprinkled upon the grass; so prettty!



Of course I couldn't wait to cut some and bring them indoors to enjoy.


In a little pitcher with petals strewn about a lace topped table.

Or in a teacup...


And of course, I always have to put some in a teapot.


Oh my, the fragrance is heavenly!  Love my roses!

Happy Pink Fourth of July and thank you for visiting Rose Chintz Cottage today. Wishing you all a lovely and pink long holiday weekend.

Happy Canada Day!


Happy Canada Day

O Canada!
Our home and native land!
True patriot love in all thy sons command.
With glowing hearts we see thee rise,
The True North strong and free!
From far and wide,
 O Canada, we stand on guard for thee.
God keep our land glorious and free!
O Canada, we stand on guard for thee.
O Canada, we stand on guard for thee.

Happy Birthday Canada! We thank God for you.

Wishing all my Canadian friends a Happy Canada Day celebration!
Have a safe and happy weekend.
