Remembering Summer

 

Five things I love about summer:

Water - in its liquid state (above)

Pea-pickin' days in June

Great warm days in July
(and beautiful puffy clouds)

My August birthday family reunion
at our place


 Flowers in the garden

Summer flowers in my garden
How I long to see you again!

There are many more things I like about summer,
but I'll have to share them in a different post.

Oh, I love summer, too, Judy! Sweet photos of your little ones and those flowers are beautiful. I hope you have a nice day and an extra special weekend.

Tanna said...

Loved seeing glimpses of beautiful summer! And, that is about the cutest little pea picker I've ever seen. ;) Have a wonderful weekend, Judy. blessings ~ tanna

Cathy said...

So beautiful! You take the most beautiful pictures. It almost makes me want to invest in a better camera so I can get some better pictures than with my iPhone. I think my favorite is the water picture. That is so absolutely gorgeous with the bridge in the background and the flowers in the front. Now I am longing for summer too.

Hope you have a great weekend.

MadSnapper said...

I can see from these photos why you are longing for summer days.. sunshine and beauty and family camping in a tent in the yard.

NanaDiana said...

I love summer, too, Judy. I am not a winter person at all and the cold really 'gets to me' once Christmas is over and done....lol
I am looking forward to seeing a bit of green in a couple of months here. xo Diana

Those little bare feet! I love little feet. They're so cute! Baby M loves for me to tickle her toes. She squeals with delight. Children show delight in so many things. When did we outgrow delight? Have a wonderful weekend! And please, keep summer up there. LOL

Susie said...

Judy, I love the five things you love about Summer..:) That little pea picker is adorable. The gathering of your loved ones is the best. Your flowers are truly beautiful . Blessings, xoxo, Susie

Mrs.T said...

What beautiful photos of summer! Good reminder that it WILL come again!

The Joy of Home with Martha Ellen said...

You are really teasing us with those sweet photos of summer, Judy. All of your photos are great, but I must say the pea picking one is adorable. Have a nice weekend. xo ♥

Preppy Empty Nester said...

I love EVERYTHING about Summer!! Your little pea picker is so darn cute. Have a great weekend!

Anita Johnson said...

I'm getting excited about summer...the sun today really made me miss it!

Amy at love made my home said...

Definitely five good things to think about in summer! I am looking forward to it too!

Brenda @ Its A Beautiful Life said...

Judy, You made me homesick. For lazy summer days, and pea-picking with my family (that little one is too cute for words), sharing family get-together times...

Wonderful photos. So glad you shared them with us today.

Mac n' Janet said...

Our summers are so hot and humid that I look forward to spring, not summer.

Summer looks good in your neck of the woods! Happy five to you and I hope you have a good weekend.

Judith @ Lavender Cottage said...

I love the whole gardening season that includes summer! We can look forward to pretty flowers again - and pea picking with grands...hurry up and arrive. :-)

~Lavender Dreamer~ said...

The family reunion every year would be worth it all to me! I love summer too...it's my favorite season of the year! happy weekend! Hugs!

Jean said...

I also love summer. It is my favorite season. We've actually had summer like temps around here today (and they are supposed to last the weekend) but I do very much miss all the green and flowers that usually go along with the warmer weather.

Sharon said...

Ah you're making me miss summer! I miss blue skies and sunshine, being able to have the windows open and just feel the fresh air coming inside. Of course that's until it gets too hot and we all sort complaining!

Happy Five on Friday

I'm not a summer person, but your photos have me dreaming of planting.

Patsy said...

I love that pea picker's sweet little chubby arms. The flowers make me want to hurry along to summer. I bought flower seeds today. Can't wait.

Lynne said...

A wonderful summer teaser for sure!

Karen @ Beatrice Euphemie said...

Thank you! I Needed that! Hugs!

Snap said...

It looks like you are ready for summer! Gorgeous images of summer past. Have a lovely week.

podso said...

This photos make me yearn for summer too, even though some days it seems to have arrived. It all looks so beautiful, and probably not too many heat waves. :-)

Lorrie said...

Your summer flowers are so beautiful. I'm longing for warmer, sunnier days, too. Have a great weekend.

This N That said...

The first picture is gorgeous..Your flowers are beautiful..Enjoy your weekend..

sweetbriardreams said...

Hi Judy, yes indeed Summer is on its way and I am capturing lots of spring bulbs starting to break through the ground! Have a wonderful week xx

Fil said...

Thank you for the reminders of sunshine - it's needed at this time of year.
It's lovely to get a glimpse of your part of the world.

Maggie said...

What a lovely ray of summer sunshine to brighten up this very grey damp day in Normandy. Love the peach coloured dahlia, stunning shot.
Happy MM.

Jill Harrison said...

Summer can be a lovely time if it is not too hot like it is in Australia. I prefer spring. Have a wonderful week. I hope some warm sun is warming up your world. I'm joining you from Mosaic Monday.

riitta k said...

Summer is my favourite season too. We don't have it too hot... Happy week.

Pondside said...

Every grandmother needs a pea patch just for moments like you've captured! I am looking forward to summer too.

Wonderful memories ... your birthday party on the patio looks perfect ... you had charming guests! And also a really sweet pea picker! And your flowers! Of course I love summer too ...so much so that I skip winter altogether these days. Don't know how much longer we can keep doing this, but I know I feel better without the damp cold of the PNW. I've never really experienced a snowed in winter like you have!
