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.

Joining Amy's Five on Friday

    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

    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.

    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.

    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

    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.

    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.

    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 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.

    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. :-)

    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.

    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.

    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!
