July/August Flowers

We've had so many pretties blooming in our little backyard garden over the last couple months. Here are some of my favorites... (check out may and june's flowers if you missed em!)

dahlia- from old house dahlias, in our hood

impatiens, with a litlte geranium bud peeking in

chocolate cosmos that ACTUALLY SMELL LIKE CHOCOLATE. No joke.

cally lily

bee balm- the hummingbirds love this one!

potato vine goin' buckwild- covers our chain link fence, we love it

yarrow

dahlia

so many roses

hydrangea

And here's a wider view of our garden and little backyard shed, where I film my doses of mojo videos!

Ok so it's techincally video, singular, at this point, but I'm filming more and have so much good stuff coming up soon soon- can't wait to share! The fall feeling of shifting into high gear is starting to catch me. I love this time of year!

Although today's my Mr's birthday (I love you, Mr!) and I'm off to play hooky with him at the coast to eat ice cream, take pics, drink a beer and take in the ocean breeze. Squeezing the last out of summer where we can!

What's been blooming in your neck of the woods lately? Feeling that fall buzz yet, or dreading the end of summer?

Your flowers are beautiful - I especially love the roses and dahlias. We just moved into our new house a year ago, so it's fun to watch what pops up around the yard each season.
