Happy Independence Day
Mom is preposting this for us since the holiday is always a busy one. We hope all of you have a fun, safe, and happy day.
As we were writing this, the weather is not looking good for July 4th. Mom is still holding out hope because she loves her day at the parade, but Dog Dad is already making other plans. If the weather cooperates than Mom, Dog Dad, and one of our favorite relatives will be sitting not too far from this historical house in the shade to watch the parade. While we will miss them, we are not doing any rain dances as that will ruin the rest of the day for us, too.
In honor of Friday Flowers, Mom decided to share pictures of what her Mom always called 4th of July lilies, which are actually Day Lilies. The bright orange lilies appear all over the place right around the 4th here. Many people line their property with them and because they spread, it makes a beautiful edge for a few weeks.

ReplyDeleteHope you had a wonderful 4th, and that your weather has cleared up. We had rain all day yesterday but today the sun is back, though it's quite breezy. We have a lot of those daylilies but mine aren't open yet...I always seem to be behind!
