Some People Dream of White Picket Fences...

...I always dreamed of window boxes. 
 
 Hi friends - it is great to be back.  Our family had a great summer - many baseball games, some vacation time, lots of gardening - it was a nice and needed break. 
 
Thought I'd share with you one of the little things that makes me happy around our house...
 
 
...my very simple window boxes.  When I was a little girl I can remember drawing pictures of house "fronts" and every one I drew had window boxes with pretty flowers.  Well I'm all grown up now (over the hill actually ;-) and I still envision beautiful flower-filled boxes.
 
 
I used the same Allure "Tangerine" geraniums this year.  I had such great luck with them last year and I've just been hung up on orange for a while now! They are so bright and happy!
 
 
A little asparagus fern and some bacopa finish off the boxes!
 
 
 I hope your summer was fantastic!
 
 
 
Next up - my "stock tanks" - filled with flowers and a water feature.
 
 
Happy Friday!
