I have been very busy with summer time things. First I hope you all are having a great summer!
I have some flowers from my garden.
Today it was almost 90 degrees and Mr. Hillcrest opened our inground pool and I am so happy he did! That is the only way I can cool down. We also cook on the grill most of the time which is wonderful, so get a cold drink and I hope you enjoy this very heavy picture post!!
Here are some pictures of my flowers, ENJOY!
These are my four o'clocks or some people call them lemon drops.
In the background you can see our pool and here below are pics of the new rafts and toys for our pool for this year! When I took this picture the stuff was on my kitchen table but NOW they are in the pool area and we are having a ball!
BEAUTIFUL!!
Last picture is of my handsome husband and is apron that says SUPER DAD!
Well my next post is of a colonial piece that Hubby and I bought and it is
beautiful, I did take some pictures of the huge piece but they came out blurry so I am going to re-do them!
Tomorrow it is going to be 90 degrees and I will be busy and then in the POOL!!
I hope you see how much I LOVE my flowers and I still have two more gardens to show you in another post!
Have a wonderful week!
Till next time my Prims,
Be kind to each other and give
your loved ones extra kisses,hugs and
I Love You's! XOXO
Summer Blessings,
Tricia
Good Morning Tricia...

Wonderful pictures Tricia, your flowers and deck are beautiful! I'm so envious of your pool!! We also have one and it has been nothing but trouble this year trying to get it clear...it was almost there and when my husband went out to work on it last night a piece from the pump broke! It will be almost 90 here today and I would love to go in for a swim!! Enjoy a cool dip for me today! ~Kriss~

ReplyDeleteHi Tricia, I love ALL your flowers but my favorite are your four o'clocks and the daisies. Can you tell I am partical to yellow? Just so bright and cheerful. That pool sounds wonderful as we have been nearing 100 degrees all last week and in 90's this week as well. You have a great day.

Everything looks so healthy and thriving ~ you certainly must have one green thumb! And there's no sweeter sight than a man in an apron (with a wonderful smile on his face!!) ;o) Glad you're enjoying your pool - ours, like Kriss's, has had one issue after another this year...latest casualty was the pump....Oh well, we haven't been as hot here...Have a wonderful Wednesday Sweetie!

Hi,Tricia...nice to talk to you again. The petunias are gorgeous, I think I like them the best for summer (and lavender).When you have time, read about some giveaways going on that I put in a post today and yesterday. Your yard is beautiful, enjoy your swimming pool!

Good morning Tricia, It's so good to see that blogger finally will let you post on my blog again, I have missed your comments. Your flowers are just beautiful!!! I love all those blue hydrangea's, gosh gal I can see why you have been so busy....your garden looks so lovely. It's so good to see that your back to blogging, it's seems like forever since we last chatted. So many crazy things going on here with one our tenate's, hopefully it will calm down soon(So much to catch up on). I am so happy that your enjoying your summer and that you finally got that awesome pool opened. To bad we weren't living in Tenn. now, I would be over in a heartbeat for a swim....LOL Enjoy your week! Big Big Hugssssss Mary
ReplyDeletePS.....Love that new swing, what a wonderful place to sit with your sweetie and relax!
Hi Tricia,
ReplyDeleteIt was so nice to see your comment and that you stopped by to visit. I hope you are as well as your flowers are beautiful. Don't you just love the Summer time? Is it too hot for you where you are or are you fairly comfortable. We haven't seen anything beyond 80 degrees so I am a happy camper. It usually hovers around the low to mid 70's what more could you ask for.
Have a great day and it was nice to hear from you

Tricia your flowers are absolutely GORGEOUS!!! I love all the vibrant colors!!.The four o'clocks are my favorite they remind me of my childhood. Your deck, swing, and pool is so awesome. I wish we were neighbors I would come and dive in that pool Monday and Tuesday of next week they are calling for it to be 102 degrees and that's not with the heat index!!! :( This has been a very BRUTAL Summer here in South Carolina!! So enjoy your pool this weekend and think about me way down here scorching to death!!! hahaha. Freddie and I have decided we are going to have a pool installed this winter....the prices or so much better that time of year so next Summer I hope to have some relief!!!
ReplyDeleteLOVED our swap I hope to get it posted this weekend. I absolutely loved everything!!! Thanks again this swaps are always so much fun!!
Talk to ya tomorrow!!!
Big Hugs,
Dana
Well, it looks pretty nice and fun at your house Tricia. Flowers and plants to beautify and even a swimming hole to keep cool:o) The Lord has blessed you and yours well.
ReplyDeleteHugs~Carol
Hi Tricia. I just joined your blog too! Your flowers are absolutely beautiful. Hopefully, if I keep working on my blog, it will look as nice as yours. Blessings, Eva
ReplyDeleteHi Tricia, thanks for joining my blog, I'm now following your blog, and looking forward to your journey. Love your flowers in your garden, unfortunately it is winter here in Australia so the garden is pretty boring, but come spring hopefully my garden will be full of colour as I have planted lots more seedlings. You guys have so many lovely prim stores over there, here we don't have that many. Hugs, Karen
