Welcome to our 'Romancing the Blog' Valentine's party hosted by the very lovely and romantic, Lesley, of Flatwoods Folk Art! Be sure to stop by her blog to visit all of the parties being had all throughout blogland in honor of the occasion! I hope you are inspired by the romance offered here and throughout our home...
The table is set for a romantic dinner for two...
With special gifts of love to bestow upon one another...
Cupid is ready to strike!
Soft romantic music plays, while a book of poetry awaits. White and pink roses surround with champagne in the boudoir...
and someone romantic waiting...
to snuggle up with you! (he got in this spot all on his own!)
Romance abounds! Wishing you all a very romantic day! Be sure to stop by the other lovely parties by clicking the image below...
Till next time...
Happy Valentine's Day sweet Alice and Joshua. May your love and romance last for eternity.
Hugs.

Hi Alice, Josh & Renoir~
What a beautiful party here at your home! Love all the romantic photos and the postcards. My eye has been caught by that gorgeous trophy bowl with the ornaments in it and the vintage flash cards, I could scoop up everything and take it home... oh yes, and Renoir too - want to come home to the Maison with moi? The ice cream's on Zeke.
I will be back to look more later and dream of my house looking as nice as yours.
Have a beautiful St. Valentine's Day!

Alice, I wish I could stop over for the party ;) Renoir is waiting so patiently for your valentine kisses ~ He's darling. Your photos are sooo lovely. I especially like the one with the pocket watches. After visiting some of the blog parties today I'm feeling a little inspired to get out the camera.
Hope you and Joshua have a blessed romance ~ for lots of Valentines. Blessings... Polly

Your home is so romantic. Inspires me to want to start decorating my home for all of the holidays (never seem to do this other than Christmas). Your holiday table is just too precious. Hope that you and Joshua (and of course Renoir) had a beutiful day.
