One of the reasons I started blogging was to participate in the linky parties all over Blogland. I love the beautiful tablescapes at Between Naps on the Porch. I’ve posted a few of my favorite tablescapes over the past year.

Here’s a family dinner.

This was from a day when my daughter and I made clam chowder for dinner.  She was excited to use the soup tureen and the tablescape just grew from there.

This was our tablescape from last Easter.

Here is a Thanksgiving tablescape from my sister’s house.

Of all the beautiful displays I’ve shared over the past year, THIS tablescape is my favorite:

My kids, with a little help from dad, prepared a perfect Mother’s Day dinner for me.  They called it a seafood extravaganza.

There was shrimp with cocktail sauce, smoked salmon and crackers, fresh berries, salad, bread, and crab fettuccine. Grandma’s fine china and favorite sparkling cider glasses are paired with the plastic butter container, salad dressing bottle, and jar of sunflower seeds.  Honestly, it was the best meal I’ve eaten in a long time.  Their table setting made my heart melt.  It was a perfect Mother’s Day, spent with a perfect family.

Happy belated Mother’s Day!
