Well...here we are....the last month of Summer, 2017.
It seems it has gone pretty fast with fun times
and
family birthday celebrations!
The hibiscus have brought us so much joy this season...
just beautiful, beautiful pink blooms!
I adore watching the hydrangea change it's colors....
wasn't sure if I would be successful growing this one, but
it is really taking off after one year.
Swimming felt so, so soothing last weekend...
we had a HOT few days and we are so thankful to have
a pool to relax in for a summer afternoon!
Part of the fun of family vacation is the planning and the shopping.....
now comes the list making, menu decisions and packing smartly.
We bring certain dry foods and then make a big shopping trip
on our first day....this is part of the fun, however I'll be missing
Miss M this time around....son number 1 is going to take her position
in the grocery trip!
This is the time to choose accessories and only take
items I am actually planning to wear.
Stocking the bar for our cocktail hour is going to look
so beachy this year....thanks Target!
Anticipation....
We can never know about the days to come........
But we think about them anyway........
These are the good old days!
Such pretty photos. I like the pillow and chair cushion colors. Your summer jewelry looks beautiful. Vacation are always a special treat. With family along, it will be a lot of fun. Blessings, xoxo,Susie

ALL day COOL! it has been like a special gift from heaven to me. (well. and everyone of course!)

Oh Tammy...a cool misty rainy day sounds heavenly....very overcast and gray here, which I LIKE actually..reminds me of fall....you are such a dear....yes, Mae goes where we go from now on...thank you for such sweet comments and if you are entertained for a few moments...well, that's perfect...warm hugs!
DeleteI know- I have a big list that I check off as I go so that I don't forget things. Then, I use it to repack when I come home so I don't forget anything by mistake...of course some stuff just gets crossed off as it is used. lol
ReplyDeleteEnjoy your vacation and have funn. xo Diana
