It will stay this way until mid September, unless we have a dry summer and then it might go a bit lighter or brown. Fall is beautiful and my favorite but I love this time too.

For years, it was the kids domain and we played with them outside but it wasn't a pretty yard. Then they grew, we took out the swingset and fort and started a new deck, cut down bushes and trees that were overgrown, painted the fence and planted perrenials. Now it's a calming and so relaxing spot to spend time in. I'll miss it for sure when we move to our new house and all we'll have will be mud for the first year!<br />Chyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09612160129616190092noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6420789516107092243.post-60358174721397064162014-06-28T17:02:27.965-07:002014-06-28T17:02:27.965-07:00I noticed how the leaves on the trees here have ch...I noticed how the leaves on the trees here have changed to mature green, much darker than the delicate shades of spring. Our green grass is turning golden these days, as is typical in summer. <br />It's amazing how quickly the trees fill in - the photos you've shown are striking.Lorriehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03653026442945027184noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6420789516107092243.post-92088859229206503002014-06-27T07:26:54.450-07:002014-06-27T07:26:54.450-07:00Your outside space looks so inviting.
