Around the House~Summer edition :)

I love to decorate our home with seasonal things, and Hubbie doesn't mind a bit! I have probably mentioned that a time or two on this blog! :) Using things I already own is fun...but when someone gives me a decoration, it is so enjoyable to me to find the "perfect spot" for it! When I decorate for Memorial Day and Fourth of July, I usually leave those things out until Labor Day. Here are just a few pictures from around our home this summer...Enjoy!

As a cost savings measure, please adjust the thermostat to 93 and re-adjust the temperature later in the day so that it is cool for when I get home!! Kidding….

Thanks for decorating the home and making it a pleasant environment.

ATTENTION BLOGGING FRIEND KAREN – Thanks for the decorations, Donna really enjoys them! That was very kind and thoughtful.

Have a great day Donna, and I hope it all goes well!

Love,
“Hubbie”

I love your decorations! I didn't get my patriotic decorations out because we got home on the 3rd. I may go ahead and pull them out for the rest of the month. I don't much so it shouldn't take long. It will be hot here too so I am leaving the lawn mowing again and doing work in the house!
