Hi! Thought I'd post a few beautiful shots I was able to capture after spending some time with family last week. It has been scorching hot out and everything is turning crunchy and burnt. You don't even want to see our front yard!
So I will show you some of these shots

Flowers still holding their color and blooms ... I sure hope it rains soon!
Look closely below - can you see the mama dove nervously covering her babies? I couldn't see them but the neighbor friend I spoke to said he couldn't bear to water the plant now. He didn't want to disturb the nest. What a plush home she has made! Right?
These grapes were a fun to surprise to see on my aunt's fence. I didn't ask if they squish them to make wine! A Lucille Ball TV episode is suddenly coming to mind and making me smile....
Speaking of smiling - I wanted to snuggle (kidnap, perhaps...) with my cousin's furry animals. I surely miss having a lap dog. Someday soon...
I've been surrounded by lovable Yorkies lately and I love it! Have a great week and stay cool! Drop me a line - what fun things have you done this summer? I can't believe July is coming to a close. Well it's not over til I have my birthday then it's off to August already!
Love that sweet dove

summer here in MN, too!

Happy Birthday Angela! We are truly blessed to have you in our lives! Love the pictures! Hugs,Auntie G.
ReplyDeleteIt's so good to hear from you Angela! The yorkies are too cute. The garden blooms are lovely (I love phlox) It has been really hot here too, but thankfully we have lots of water to keep the garden going well. I just hope we get the snow pack we need this winter to keep the water storage up.

Good Morning Angela, I found your site through mutual followers and I am already in love with your blog. I believe that, that mother bird picked a most cozy environment for her nest. It looks all warm and inviting, tucked up in that old tractor.
