still here, just not here

Summer seems to have taken over. Our days here at the Clothesline have been filled with so much fun, work, joy, playing, planning, caring, splashing, watering, smelling, and feeding. Well, here, see for yourself.

stopping:: often to smell the lavender, and yes, occasionally picking some

enjoying::the warm, summer, afternoon rain showers

perfecting::the twirl and listening to suffering through a rendition of Singin' in the Rain

waiting::with great anticipation for the first ripe tomatoes

blowing::lots and lots of bubbles

splashing::and sliding and squealing and having a marvelous time

selling::lemonade on one of the hottest days yet at our very first yard sale.

swinging::higher than ever before...and holding on tight

keeping::that hula hoop up and going a little longer with each try

caring::yes, caring for, feeding, watering, watching, listening to, and loving every moment of chicken-sitting for our friends. These three beauties and 12 other hens have kept us entertained and filled with fresh eggs for many days now. I do love me some chickens!

I hope your summer days are filled with whatever brings you joy. Ours have been busy, but we do also enjoy quiet times with a good book and a comfy hammock...and there's always time for that. Happy Tuesday! xo ANG
