Pink Saturday Rookie!


Hi Everyone,

This is my first ever Pink Saturday post! Beverly from How Sweet the Sound hosts this wonderful event each week. I've been following the posts for some time and finally got in ahead of the deadline (I remembered)!

I have many, many pink treasures to contribute in the coming weeks, but this week I decided to add a final glimpse of summer from a photo I took last month of my bucket of pink petunias.

Bask in the memories of the warm sunshine, the chirping birds, the laughter of neighborhood children, the warm breeze gently blowing the curtains, the aroma of freshly cut grass, leisurely evening walks, the smell of a BBQ wafting from a neighbors yard, a glass of wine on the patio, the sound of crickets in the still night, fireflies blinking so sweetly and...

Goodbye summer, you will be missed.

  4. Such a pretty bucket of posies. I too am sorry to see summer go although it was pretty much rainy and cold here in VT, I did spend 6 weeks down south and get my summer in.

    Happy Pink Saturday!

  10. Isn't is sad when the flowers begin to tire and we know that their color will be replaced with the fall leaves. But, we always have hope for the following spring...

  13. Yes, it's almost over, but there are many of us that can't wait for the end of the heat to come. I am in the desert and want the fall air to be here. We are still seeing triple digits during the day, so I will enjoy the cooler temps. Your bucket of blooms is lovely, welcome to the group and Happy Pink Saturday. Char

    Perhaps you'll visit me and become a follower of mine. I can see that we'll be fast friends!

    Enjoy your day!

    I peeked at some of your earlier posts and they are wonderful! That dressing table is TO DIE FOR...what a find!!!
    Happy PS,
