Enlightened!

It's another day with summery temps...so today's post is focused another thing that I love about summer - outdoor party lights!  I love going to garden areas that have twinkly lights strewn about...and I can't wait to string up tons of festive lights in our own yard/garden.

Hope the weather is nice where you are!

Oh, those lights are so pretty--I love how they call them faery lights in British English. It's so perfect.

The weather here is pretty ridiculously rainy. Oh well. I hope it's nice where you are!

You've got summer temperatures over there? Lucky! And all these lights are so beautiful. I hope I have some place to decorate like this.

that silly blogger shut down! Lovely images though! Tyler and I were talking this morning how we can't wait to move back to the mid-west and have a yard, space, a place to grill and garden, a place for a new puppy to run around! oh how I miss it.

Pretty pretty! I love outdoor lights. This posts makes me want a patio (even more than I always do, hehe)!

Those pictures make me wish I had a backyard! (currently in an apartment...)

Me too, me too! I LOVE garden lights. One of my goals for this year was to string some up under the trees in our backyard for impromptu ice cream socials.

And then, we had our trees cut back, so now I may have to wait.

But I can still look and admire and plan. :)
