Picture Perfect Party Linky #65

Here's a peek at our back garden, swimming pool and 2 of our pets. Recently was the first day that Amanda could go swimming. We've been having spring and now summer with a few wintry days still passing through. I know, most of my blogging community is in the northern hemisphere and experiencing winter, and even some have already had early snow fall. None of my kids have ever experienced a white Christmas, but it is on my wish list for them.

I've seen my fair share of white Christmases and they aren't all they're cracked up to be ;) I'd love a warm Christmas for once.

So jealous and just getting colder here by the minute now. What I wouldn't give for a warm Christmas and would totally switch with your kids in a heartbeat. But Amanda looks adorable and glad she could finally go swimming!! :)

Thanks, Janine, for sharing your sentiments. I don't really enjoy extreme weather, very hot or very cold, so I should be happy that the kids are able to enjoy the sunshine and swim. I wish you a lovely Christmas with the cold weather and all. ;)

That's a gorgeous pool! We had a heat snap these last few days with the temp making it back up into the 90s. I pretty much hate it, ha ha ha, ready for the cool weather here in the desert!

I love that little fountain in your pool. We just had our first snowfall last night, so your photos are making me long for the warm summer days that have just passed :)

Wow, what a beautiful pool Tina!! It's starting to get cold here! Yay! I live in the south so we don't get a white Christmas very often. Like, every 10 years. So I'm with you. I"m always dreaming of a white Christmas! ;)

My recent post Bob’s Best Day Ever
Gorgeous! Those look like bush crepe myrtles, but their bound to be something else?

I was just thinking the other day that it's funny how even when I had never seen a white Christmas I wanted one! We have no chance of one in central Texas, but in north Texas I did have one growing up - it was kind of a bummer because we had to play in the snow before it melted so we had to put off presents and dinner. I remember it though! :)
