| Morning Glories blooming from seed I planted in July |
I've been staying indoors as our Indian Summer winds down. Temperatures were in the low 100's for days, but we got a reprieve this weekend. As usual, we can expect one last heat wave as October arrives but I'm looking forward to cooler weather and putting a blanket on the bed by the middle of the month.
A fire hydrant burst in our neighborhood! I was upstairs in my scrap room working on a layout when I happened to see the hubbub outside. Water was rushing over the curbs and sidewalks until the fire department and utility company arrived.
Here is the scrapbook page I was working on.
I used puzzle pieces, a train punch, and dripped paint on this layout.
I also used Making Memories Vintage Findings (school) which included the Report Card envelope and 1960's era book page.
Handyman brought in the Fall decor boxes, which are now sitting in the living room. I can't wait to dig through them!
I try not to rush through the seasons, and have been pretty good at waiting until September is over before bringing out the pumpkins. I'll just enjoy these Morning Glories a while longer~
The pretty blue morning glories are worth enjoying as long as possible.
ReplyDeleteThe scrapbook page is interesting with colours and textures - especially the paint drips.
Thank you for linking to Mosaic Monday.
You have quite a creative talent with scrapbooking...that page is a work of art with some many details and layers. I too want to enjoy my flowers longer before the pumpkins come out...I love your many views of the mornin' glory
ReplyDeleteYour morning glories are glorious! I think the blue morning glories have always been my favorite. You had some excitement in the neighborhood. Great scrapbook page. October 1 and I'll be decorating for Halloween! Happy Mosaic Monday!
ReplyDeleteYour morning glories are pretty! I love the scrapbook page, you are creative! Thanks for sharing, enjoy your week.
ReplyDeleteI used to have Morning Glories - I love those I think they are so pretty - I hope you got your pipes fixed.
ReplyDeleteLove your beautiful morning glories, Shawn! I planted them outside of our town home, where we lived. I would plant them again if we had a sunny spot where they could climb! I bet somebody is enjoying the cuptowel set!
ReplyDeleteGreat pictures of your morning glories, they are so delicate.
ReplyDeleteThank you for sharing with the Clever Chicks Blog Hop! I hope you’ll join us again next week!

ReplyDeleteYou live in a beautiful neighborhood, but that fire hydrant must have made a mess! That was a great picture. :) Love your scrapbook page too. :)
Have a great week.
