Dear July

I love the summer evening drives with you.


I love the Patriotism in you.

I love that you bring me flowers.

I love that you make my garden grow.


I love sitting in the back yard with you.

I loved that the wedding with you was perfect.

And the couple is happy.

Most of all, I love that you've never thrown a snowball at me.

Thanks for giving me the first one of these for the year:

I've loved you this year. (Please marry me! Howie is OK with it.)
You are totally invited to stay for another few months.

    Our summer has been eaten up by the move and working. And soon it will be over. I want a do-over!

    It was so long getting here, I think it owes us the courtesy of an extended stay :)

    All the pictures look great! The one with the bride and groom, the sunset and temple in the background, beautiful!

    Somehow my comment vaporized. July here is too hot. Your yard and world looks dandy.

    Hard to believe it's August today!
    I anticipated my vacation since February and now I've been home for a month already!

    One thing I hated about the end of July...it marked the beginning of the end for summer and the inevitable start of school. At least I have graduated and now I look forward to the start of school so I can work again. ;)

    Ha! Wishful thinking. I heard it was raining in Idaho today. I'm in California right now, and it's hot, hot, hot!

    So, July was wonderful for you. But August? So far, sounds like not so much! I hope things take a turn for the better! Howie needs to come home!

    Hang in there. You've got nowhere to go but up. ;)

    LOVE, LOVE, LOVE your clever post!! You have such a wonderful way with words.

    Thanks for always brightening my day with with your posts, words and photos! It is always such a JOY to visit your blog and I have missed you greatly!!

    Less than a week and I life will slow down a bit and I can have more time to blog and stay in touch. Thank goodness for "scout camp-outs" and kids being at grandmas for the night as it has given me some time to recharge and connect with those people that I care so much about!!

    Have a wonderful weekend!!
