Friday's Favs...backyard blossoms and summer to-do lists

While there's a list of projects around the house I should get done this summer,

June is already slipping by with nary a one checked off that list.

But if that list included strolling around the backyard in my pajamas and slippers each morning to see what blossoms are open, well, I've checked that one off the list most days.

There's also been a lot of grandkid lovin' on the list.

Check. Check.

Runs in the cool of the evening and having to pause in my running to notice the feathery cirrus cloud formations in the summer sky, why I've done a bit of that, too.

Morning devotions at the desk in my home office with a cup of hot coffee and the cool morning air wafting through the open window has been a definite priority.

Practicing my photography, (still learning my way around my Nikon d7000), 

yes, I've done a bit of that.

Oh, I've also gathered the supplies to make strawberry jam.

All but the strawberries that is.

Next week I hope to accomplish that.

Going blueberry picking with all the grands is a must-do as well.

Then there's church activities in there, too.

This Saturday is our annual pre-4th of July barbecue and outreach.

We have an annual homemade ice cream contest.

Making the best ice cream ever is, of course, an important item on my to-do list.

Dreaming of and making vacation plans is another summer priority.

It's beginning to occur to me that autumn might be just the season to get things done around the house.

It's almost Friday friends!

Have a HAPPY, HAPPY Friday

and a BLESSED weekend.
