Homemade Strawberry

SCREAMS
SUMMER
Flowers Which I Planted From
Bulbs TWO Years Ago!
BLOOMING

the
FIRST
TIME
Baby Girl #2
Learning to Cook on The Grill
Watching my Yard
Turn
from
Mulch to FLOWERS!
MAGIC!
Ribs That Have Cooked
for
HOURS!
YUMMMMM
Views from my Kitchen Window
Birds DIVING
for
Berries
Summer Pie
MY OH MY

Need I say More?
Goodbye
Summer
See you in about 9 months!

Flowers Please Stay!


School has started
The air has a different scent
The nights are cooler

I am not quite ready to surrender Summer
not ready to surrender the warm air
not ready to surrender the afternoon rain
not ready to surrender the flowers
oh how I Love my flowers

The Palette



What a beautiful vintage palette
from
 The Graphics Fairy! 

A
Palette
Is
A
Work
of
ART
all
by 
itself

I love to stare at my daughter's palette
while she works.
It tells a story.
It has a clear beginning and end.
The paint dances and swirls
on the hard surface
aiding to create the masterpiece.
Looking at her palette helps me
to peek into her mind.
To see the story unfold
even before
the 
paint
reaches the canvas.

Summer In Breckenridge

Oh How I Love
the
MOUNTAINS
in
the
SUMMER
fresh clean air
clear blue sky
crisp cool breeze

Love it!
I REALLY do!
