four somethings- May edition

 

I'm linking up with Heather for this blog post, where we share things loved, read or said, treasured and ahead. 

Something loved—

Hydrangeas! I don't love the summer months, but I do love the beauty these warm months bring. Hydrangeas are my favorite flowers/bushes and I'll never grow tired of looking at them. 

I also love the other things warm weather brings—swimming, more time spent doing something relaxing like reading, cooking out, lightning bugs, seeing my sons enjoy time with their friends. 

I had my first swim of the summer on Saturday and it was glorious. I look forward to many more times like that.

Something read—

All my favorite books have been by the most loved authors I've ever read. I am making a trip to Nashville one day soon to go visit my favorite used bookstore, so I look forward to finding more books. 

Something treasured—

Time with my dad, time with my mom, whom I don't have a picture of. I was fortunate to see my parents last week and spent part of two days in a row with them. My mom and I laugh so hard when we're together sometimes and this week was no different. She did something so funny that I almost spewed my drink. I do not take these times for granted! I took this picture of Dad because the way Callie was laying beside him. She is always his protector when he's here and adores him. 

Something ahead—

Lots of fun things, like cookouts and swimming and fireworks and a day trip with girlfriends are all things I look forward to when the weather turns warm. Like I said, I don't love the summer, but I love all the fun it brings. Fun times ahead! It's good to have something to look forward to. 

Thanks for reading along! Love to all.
