A Pink Summer

Please visit Beverly's Pink Saturday Blog. There are a very large number of participants to this "pink party": http://howsweetthesound.typepad.com/my_weblog/


This is my first Pink Saturday post so I am showing things from this summer. This will give me a real challenge with my photography each week, finding things that are pink since I'm not really a pink person! I can count about 6 things in my whole house that even approach being pink but we shall see.

    Oh how pretty! I was never a pink gal until about two years ago -- then I sort of re-discovered pink all at once.
    I love your collage, from the sweet florals to that absolutely DARLING little girl. How cute!

    Hi Shirley,
    There is nothing better than pink flowers. And yours are absolutely beauitful. Those roses on the bottom right corner of your lovely mosaic are the softest shade of pink I have ever seen. Simply beautiful. Thanks so much for sharing. Have a wonderful Pink Day.

    Blessings,
    ♥Ana

    Being a Texas Gal, I went right to the Pink Shuttered horse stall...didn't really think there'd be a Pink Horse, tho..lol! How many horses do you have and what are their names? Your mosaic is a Perfect Pink Saturday Start...Welcome. CollectInTexas Gal...Sue

    What you chose for Pink Saturday is very nice. I am like you, i have very little pinks, so I am looking where ever I go. I love the color pink, just have no household items.

    Oh, Shirley! I'm so glad to see you here. I am going to have to be sure and join as a follower so I won't lose you again! I've been gone for a while from the blog circuit, but I'm back with a hopefully better laptop computer. They had to "tweak" it. :-)

    I love your mosaic. I think you will find that it's easier to find pink than you realize. Growing up, I could have found a lot of pink in our house... my pink room, pink phone, pink clothes, pink wallpaper, and then I turend blue! But I have touches of things still that are pink, and I'm gravitating toward it more the older I get. Maybe going through a second childhood?

    Here's hoping you have fun on your first Pink Saturday. This is a wonderful group, and I always enjoy doing this Meme.

    Much love and WELOME!

    XO,

    Sheila :-)

    I have often said in the past that I am a pink fraud, it's true, for me the color pink really isn't even on the radar. Welcome to Pink Saturday it's lots of fun and will expand your color horizon for sure, Char

    This could be a challenge for you, not owning much pink and all! I usually use images from online, so you should have no problems. I see you are a horse lady! I have several ladies in my family that have an intense love of horses and have their own, my Mom, 2 Aunts, 2 Cousins, and extended cousins. The have an annual reunion where they get together and have a "Pony Cousin" weekend with their horses. Their blog links are at the bottom of left side of my blog if you are interested. There are several.
    Welcome to Pink Saturday and have yourself a wonderful weekened!

    What a gorgeous summer you had - remarkable and beautiful! Thanks so much for sharing.

    Sorry, I didn't get to see everyone yesterday. I had important business. My 11 year-old grandson was playing football and he wanted Mimi to go to the out-of-town-last-of-the-season-game. THEY WON AGAINST AN UNDEFEATED TEAM! WOO-HOO! 35 - 17☺

    Hope the coming week blesses you with sunshine, happiness and good friends.

    Hi Shirley,

    What gorgeous pinks you've pictured. I especially like the pink blossom in the middle but, don't know what that plant is.

    I,too,love horses. How lucky you are to have some. They're such beautiful creatures.

    Good job on cleaning up the cellar entryway!

    Happy Pink Tuesday~
