| Deep Summer |
Deep summer is when laziness finds respectability. — Sam Keen
I subscribe to Real Simple's Daily Thought, and I especially liked the quote they emailed yesterday -- my two favorite parts being the term "deep summer" and the bit about laziness. Which is why at around 5pm each day, while we wait for Mark to come home from work, you'll find us outside on the hammock enjoying the shade of the backyard. I'm usually reading a book while the kids are playing on the playground, though they'll occasionally indulge me by coming by for a swing. To me that's what summer is really about -- it gives you time to just be.

| sunflowers |
I have been smitten with sunflowers for a long, long time. So when Rebecca (just married this past Saturday) mentioned during the consultation that there would be sunflowers in bloom at her reception, I was very excited! The reception took place at a private estate in Flat Rock, and there were, indeed, sunflowers, tomato plants, pumpkin vines, and, oh yeah, beautiful guests and drinks and music and food. I quickly snapped these shots while the guests were eating.
And here's the view from the gardens of the reception tent. It was a beautiful sultry summer wedding - I can't wait to show you the rest of the photos!Labels: summer |

Mean mama spider. One day this past spring I picked up a rock, only to discover a black widow clinging to the bottom of it. I immediately dropped the rock and ran to tell Mark. The first thing he asked me was if I'd killed the spider. Umm, no. In the "fight or flight" theory I picked flight. Same thing with this bugger here. I got a little too close to it while weeding and immediately notified Mark that I wanted it killed ASAP. He just had to photograph it first, though. I would so much rather photograph flowers...Labels: summer |

Summer days are all about finding ways to keep cool...searching for rocks in Cane Creek.Labels: summer |

| Happy 4th of July! |
He's looking quite patriotic today, don't you think? (And just so you know, he styles himself. I only raise an eyebrow every now and then, such as the day he decided to wear two mismatched shoes to preschool...or the day he wore his bike helmet to run all our errands...)Labels: Cole, summer |

| speaking of butterflies... |
We went back to the Nature Center today to check out the butterfly exhibit which opened over the weekend. So weird to think that we've been going to this exhibit since Cole was close to the same age that Harper is now! It's always fun, though, and we try to arrive right when the Center opens because the butterflies are still quite willing to be held.
PS. For those who asked, most of the close-up photos on the blog recently were taken with the Canon 100mm Macro.Labels: Asheville, Cole, Harper, summer |

These little dudes sure have been busy!
So glad they're here to pollinate our world, though!

| Poppies |
Happy Friday!
I wrote that phrase in an email on Wednesday night around midnight, then woke up the next morning thinking, "Hang on - it's not Friday yet!" But NOW it is!
Obviously, I should not write emails at midnight. Enjoy the weekend!Labels: summer |
