Love your videos!!
Oh my gosh, this video is absolutely perfect. So peaceful and relaxing! You can really tell how much time and effort you put into these little works of art.
I played it before bed. My husband fell asleep before the asparagus. So delightful. 🏡
Nice to see you, Gwen.😊 Gorgeous flowers, I could just smell the lilacs. 🌸 Amazing asparagus! I was hoping to get to see some of your garden this year. Wondered if deer were the reason for the fencing. Another lovely video. I hope you are having an enjoyable summer. 🌅 Take care.
Wonderful and relaxing as always. Loved the bits to include the dandelions, reminded me of my childhood and just how fast time goes. You know how to make and capture moments of joy and share with us. Thank you ❤
Your videos are so artistic and beautiful. I so enjoy them. ♥😊
Oh my Goodness Gwen , everything was so beautiful🌸💕 lilacs are my favorite flower, they bring sweet memories for me because my grandparents had them all over their garden💕 That little colt with his momma was so precious♥️ The Tea looked wonderful and peaceful💕🫖☕️
It’s so nice to see you writing an invitation in calligraphy, this one even had my name on it. ♥️💕😉
To this day I enjoy finding dandelions and making the seeds fly🌼

Thank you for sharing what spring is like in your piece of heaven❤. It must be wonderful to come to lunch at your house, it's magical, special and looks delicious!!
Hope the rains of the last few days have not touched your part of NY. We are on the border of NH/VT and so much flooding all around us but we are safe and dry.
So glad to see you back Gwen. such a lovely, peaceful video. Your table settings are beautiful. Loved the dandelions and when you made a wish and blew on them it took me way back to my childhood. Jeanette, New Zealand.
