Summer Fun

I love the summer months. For the last few weeks I have had one of my sisters staying with me. And next week my little brother will come. It is such a blast to go swimming and play with them!

Also Dayle and I have discovered that we love to grill. Cooking and cleaning is SO much easier and when the weather is nice there is no where we would rather be than outside! So hurray for summer! We love it!

Plants!

So now that we are in Georgia I have found that my favorite flower ( the Gardenia) can be grown here. In Idaho it was to cold and windy for such a plant with such a picky nature. So I potted one and it is on my door step! It was lots of fun picking out the plant, a pot, and then getting home and putting it all together. It is about 3 1/2 feet tall and has been in constant bloom since I got it! I love the fragrance that these blossoms have! Since we are in a town house though every thing has to go into pots or hanging baskets. For that reason I can't wait until we get a house!

I also planted some tomatoes and strawberries in hanging baskets and they are thriving in the warm weather. I'll have to post pictures once they are full of fruit!
