Snapshot Saturday 6/1

Happy June!  I'm not actually thrilled that it's June. Summer here is hot and humid and uncomfortable (mid-90's already this week) - I much prefer spring and fall.

But, summer does mean it's time for my annual Big Book Summer Challenge! It's an easy-going challenge - you only need to read at least one book 400 pages or longer by September to participate. So, check it out and join in the fun!

Snapshot Saturday is hosted by West Metro Mommy Reads.

My purple irises finally bloomed this week and were beautiful! The blooms don't last long, though, and they are now fading. I never got out to take a picture until yesterday, so they are a bit past their prime here but still pretty:




Hope you have a great weekend!

    So pretty! It's a shame they don't last very long. When mine bloomed I had only a few days to get a shot before they faded.

    They're adorable. I love irises and have tried year after year to plant them but unsuccessful. We live in very different worlds.
