August Was......

 

August was indeed all the things mentioned. But it also was time with my grandson and time with tea. My D came visiting the other day and as he looked at that picture on my wall he said I probably didn't have that chair anymore and he wouldn't fit it. So I pulled out the chair and we did a little photo shoot. Oh what a difference a few years make!!!

Normally D won't pose for me or let me take his picture; so we both had fun with that little chair. I loved that he wanted to play for awhile and pose in his play. I can't believe it, but D will start the fourth grade next week. I need to savor each moment when I see him, he will be a man before I know it.

 

And then there was teatime.

I hadn't been to a proper tearoom in a very long time.

It was lovely to have someone else make the food and serve myself and a friend.

Teatime at Wildwood Cottage Tea Room in Newberg, Oregon was a delight; even if I got totally lost trying to find it. Whew! Once I arrived my friend and I just relaxed and enjoyed.

I have done many teas in our gardenhouse this past year. This one took place on a hot day just a couple days after having tea at Wildwood Cottage. Now I think it is time to take a tea break; though I still enjoy my morning tea at my very own dining table.

We are still having HOT days. When I was younger I loved summer days. That said, anymore I just don't care much for HOT days. Secretly I am looking forward to the coolness of Fall/Autumn; but don't tell anyone.

 

I hope you are having a delightful end of summer and savoring each day.

Happy weekend, dear friends!
