Ahhhhh...the beach...days of sun and fun!
The Divine Miss M and family headed down to Florida
for a visit with Ohio Grandma and boy, did they enjoy every minute!
I have never been to this beautiful bedroom community
that Irma chose for her retirement, but I will tell you,
it sure makes me consider a similar move......
I can tell the Florida life agrees with her...of course,
a visit from her Atlanta family bring nothing but happiness and joy!
Miss M said they ended up with some gorgeous seashells.....
Luke the Duke even found a coconut of all things!
This kiddo has enjoyed some great summer fun!
Over in Texas....the days have turned pretty hot...close to 100 degree days!
The darling finished a gorgeous puzzle I bought him for his birthday!
One of the best things about summer, is the gorgeous summer fruits...
peaches, nectarines and cherries are favorites!
It always brings back memories of shopping the FARMER'S MARKET
in Jackson of Fortification street!
One of my favorite birthday gifts is this beautiful
candle holder!
Favorite new summer bath scents are the Softsoap
Macadamia and Peony, along with Cucumber Melon from Bodycology!
Since Summer is so hot, I prefer very light and airy jewelry....
nothing heavy or chunky!
And, when i spied this adorable sunhat....it went straight into my cart!
So, we are wrapping up July and all the birthday celebrations...
Plans are underway to take Abbs back to college
and see what's in store for the football season!
I am going to spend August working an fall projects...how about you?
Beautiful summertime pictures! I'll bet that peony soap smells divine! Happy birthday to both you and your husband! (Did I get that right?) -Jenn

DeleteThat FL vacation looked great! I was hoping that you were on it. The Happy Birthday song...so beautifully off-key. I love that your family still sings. (Mine gave up years ago.)
ReplyDeleteBetsy, I bet Luke's other grandma was thrilled to see him. Look how that kid has grown. It's always nice to see young families enjoying vacations. Us oldsters like them them too. LOL Love that awesome puzzle. I will be later today to watch the videos. :) Blessings to all, xoxo, Susie
