Red Roses for Love

 Hi Everyone

Happy Monday

These little red roses and the wax flower branches

make a pretty bouquet

I am a  pink and white rose girl but my handsome husband picked these for me

 from our garden
{Love that man of mine}

We inherited 2 red rose bushes  when we bought this house

We were going to remove the red roses

to have our garden full of whites and pinks

I am so grateful we kept them they have the most amazing fragrance and

The meaning of red roses is passion and

Love

Our buffet was covered with delicious food this weekend for a dinner party

a favorite treat was this amazing mango tart
it taste even better than it looks
fresh mango and cream fraiche

It is wonderful to eat dinner in the dining room
the newly painted vintage china cabinet was a big hit

and so special to have  family and friends all  together

A sweet friend brought us

these pretty pink roses 

~so thoughtful~

{Love}

  the language of flowers

Pink roses mean Grace and Appreciation and White roses mean Purity and Heaven
