When you live in Phoenix, you get up VERY early if you want to do something outside. It is not unusual to see people up at 5:00 AM pulling weeds, trimming bushes, and washing their cars.
I didn't get up THAT early, but I did get up to do the backyard stroll. Checking to make sure the trees and bushes are ok from the heat and wind. So I thought I would show you a picture of my bench.
Now, you KNOW there is a story here. I have been begging my hubby for a bench in the backyard...just for looks. I didn't care if we sat on it...but he said, "If we get a bench, we are sitting on it." So, he bought me a bench. Now I had pictured a cute scrolly thing, but this one is "STURDY"! Actually, it is quite cute and it is sturdy! (Yep, those are fake sunflowers...my July, August and September choice of garden flowers!)
I saw a picture on a blog where they took a picture through a shrub...here is my attempt!
I changed my dining table to Palm trees. Had the patriotic out a Long time!
Anyone recognize these????Yep, we took the grandkids to Peter Piper Pizza. Well, there it is..... just a day in my life!
Hope you have a wonderful Thursday! I think I am going to run to Walmart to get a rooster....that is a whole nother story!

My, that's hot! I live on the Texas Gulf Coast and it's so humid here it feels like it's that hot sometimes. I like your pictures today and I have to thank you again for the award!

You have created a very cozy seating area. I working on one in my backyard.
I've gotten some of the plants in already and will be on the hunt for the perfect bench.
Thanks for sharing.
