Yesterday was a milestone!!!
Vivian made immediate eye contact with me....
And....when I asked her if she was a
good girl....
SHE SMILED RIGHT BACK AT ME!!!!
At the end of the smile fest....
She must have had a small "cramp"...
Well.....you know the rest!!!
It was a pleasure having her for a
few hours....
After the small "cramp"...she settled in for a short nap....
Then she sat with Grampa in the back yard for a while...
And I got more cuddles..:o)
We had a wonderful visit...
Hope you are all having
a great day...
Lovely sunshine...
Nice temps...
HOT weekend coming up!!
Cheers! :o)

Another fine summer weekend at the Lake...
The beach deck was all ready...
Umbrellas in place....
Table set...
Waiting patiently...
Any time now....
Well perhaps I will take a garden stroll....see if anything is blooming....
Pretty slim pickins for the table arrangement...
I see some berries in the bushes....
Vine Geranium still going strong...
These tiny rudbeckias pop up everywhere....they add a nice touch...
Obedient plants not as good this year....too dry...but the tiny Hummingbird
Moths seem to love them...didn't get a pic...will try
next weekend...
This Spider was hanging around....waiting....
White flowers on the Hosta....
Some of my Miscanthus have put out their Fall Plumes...
Blue Spruce has lovely fresh new needles...
Sedums starting to bloom....
Waiting.....in the shade!!!! :o)
Checking along the beach....
When they arrived...they were hungry and hot...
Went for a swim......lovely and warm...
Chatted with the neighbours also out in the water...
Had a few snacks...
Drank some Beer...
Ate dinner on the sunporch...
Drank waaaaay too much red wine...
Had butter tarts...
Sat on the deck and stargazed and watched the moon....
Crashed quite late....up waaaaay too early...
Coffee on the deck...
Had lots of fun.....hope my guests did as well...
Hope you all had a great weekend...
Cheers! :o)

I haven't posted many garden pictures
lately...
Mainly ....because....
There seems to be a "lull" in the
garden....
Other than what I captured this afternoon...after watering...again...
The Gerbera Daisies are still going...
The Golden Glow are on their last
legs...
But the good old Geraniums never fail...
The Rudbeckias are still trying to bloom...
The Turtle Heads are newly blooming...
And my cute little wax begonias are a
sure fire success...
Still a few Hollyhocks with blooms, and the Sedum is coming along...
Why do some Hostas flower later in the summer???
Seems to me, these are the White flowered ones...the Lilac flowered ones
are earlier....Does that make sense?? :o)
The Oat Grass has lots of seed heads, and my little Hens and Chicks is doing well...
It is a wonder that anything is thriving...with all this heat and drought...
Enjoy the pictures....perhaps something new will bloom next week...
Allright.....I will not say "blooming" one more time!!!!
Hope you all had a great day...and a great weekend...
Having friends to the Lake...
Hopefully lots of swimming!!!
Cheers! :o)

She arrived looking radiant in an
adorable little dress....
After being held by EVERYONE...
She needed a short nappy poo...
She drifted into dreamland...
When she awoke...
She was smiling and refreshed...
She had her dinner....
The we swadddled her, and put on a hat!!!!
Just because we can :o)
Brand new soother...
She really loves to be
swaddled....
Hope you all have a great day..
Cheers! :o)
