Hello and welcome to our garden! Today is the Summer Solstice and it is time to kick off your heels and enjoy good weather! Cielo from House in the Roses is hosting a wonderful garden party around the world so please come and take a dip in the pool...
Can I offer you iced tea and a sandwich under the umbrella?
Maybe a magazine and a glass of pinot grigio under the gazebo?
You can rest in a pool chair here...
Or just enjoy the weather here!
How about a stroll through one of the flowerbeds?
Our daylilies are in bloom...
The lavendar smells great...
The dogwood bush is blooming all over!
Time to leave? Oh, no! I understand, you have things to do! And other wonderful gardens to visit! Well, come back anytime! Our garden awaits! We'll be here, you're always welcome!

Beautiful Tara - I can just imagine sitting under the gazebo, looking at that gorgeous pool and smelling the lavender :-}
ooooh Tara, your pool is divine, I want to dive right in!!! It is winter solstice today here in Australia so the days should be getting longer now!

Oh...it's all so pretty. And the pool looks so refreshing. Yes, I'll have a glass of pinot please. :) Lynn
P.S. Thanks for telling me about the link. I emailed Cielo.
OOOhhh! I want to come swim in your pool. We had 97 degree weather yesterday and it was 89 in the house. YUK! Hey, I'm waiting for your 6 things :)

Just looking at your garden makes the 113 degrees in my garden feel just a little cooler.
Aaaah.
Beautiful. Now that I have flowers on my patio once again, I love sitting out there in the mornings writing and drinking coffee.

Tara, your garden flowers are beautiful, and oh that pool looks so inviting. My kids miss having a pool in this new house. Your new gazebo and lawn furniture are beautiful too. Between your patio and veranda you have lots of room for garden parties. I'll be right over, can I have a glass of lemonade please. Karen
Hi Tara,
Your garden is beautiful, lots of pretty flowers.
Right now that pool is looking great, we're having a heat wave here!
Then I'll gladly take a stroll through the flower beds and have tea and a sandwich ;) How fun!
Happy day!

Really lovely, I could walk through your garden with great pleasure.
Aren't you happy that your husband finished all this before the garden party? Great timing! It is really beautiful, and that pool is very welcoming. Beautiful flowers also.
