Pink Roses for Pink Saturday

Wow! I never cease to be amazed at how quickly the days and the weeks fly by. I didn't mean to take a vacation from blogging, but I certainly did. Hmmmmmm, a full life? Yes, I suppose. Too many tasks, too little time? Most definitely. Baseball 6 nights a week? Yup, that too.

All excuses aside...

HAPPY PINK SATURDAY! These sweet little pink shrub roses are my first yard bouquet of the year. They faithfully bloom with their unabashed lipstick pink blooms every year, sometimes two different times, and they provide the most wonderful rose smell I have ever smelled. I love the way they look in one of my favorite little vintage vases that is a beautiful opaque aqua blue.

I hope you are all having a lovely summer. We are still waiting (less than patiently) for summer here in Colorado. Cool and rainy has been the forecast de jour for about a month. The plants love it. Although we need the moisture, I'm sure ready for some swimming pool weather!

While you are out blog hopping, stop by Bev's at How Sweet the Sound who is our hostess for Pink Saturday, and check out the plethora of pink posts out in Blogland. You'll be glad you did!

Until next time,
