Strawberry Lemonade and Lemon Cream Cupcakes~June 2008
Thank you for stopping by for a visit and taking a look at a few of my favorite things about June. I'm looking forward to some time off school, a wedding anniversary and Emily's 10th birthday. What are you looking forward to this month?
I wonder what it would be like to live in a world where it was always June.

Oh I'm so happy it's just about strawberry picking time here. Your lemonade looks so yummy. I think I'm going to have to make some.
ReplyDeleteJust looking at these pics have been relaxing! And I love the June quotes. I am going to enjoy each and every minute of this lovely month! Painting and upcycling things for my webstore, working in the garden, and enjoying fresh vegetables.
ReplyDeleteGreat pics, I love the look of that lemonade and will have to make some myself today *smile*!
ReplyDeleteI love the light evenings - it does not get dark here until around 10pm :)
ReplyDeleteI am not one that likes change anymore but the change of the seasons is expected....so I love that. I love the mornings on the porch....now I am getting up 30 minutes earlier just to do that. love this post!
ReplyDeleteHi Kelli! Beautiful, beautiful pictures. This month I am looking forward to a two week trip to see my daughters and their families. While I am visiting them I can go to Hobby Lobby. HE! HE! I have told you before how much I love that store.
ReplyDeleteAlso, a fun birthday party is coming up on June 20 for my granddaughter who is turning five. There are many, many reasons to love June, aren't there?
Love, Debbi
That strawberry lemonade looks delicious!
ReplyDeleteI'm looking forward to more pics of your garden. :-D
ReplyDeleteWelcome June indeed!

This is our first day of summer break, and I am so glad for not setting alarm clocks and for a more laid-back pace.
ReplyDeleteLove this time of the year. Lemonade & cup cakes look so good.

I am looking forward to not having to leave the house for school activities.
ReplyDeleteLazy summer evenings...embroidering.
Making Iced Tea and Lemonade.
Trying to grow my veggies...and pulling the weeds. (well, pulling weeds isn't fun...but it keeps me in the garden)

I love June because the days are longer. I can work out in my yard until dark. Then we will light the fire pit and sit around that.
ReplyDeleteI love June too- the beginning of summer. Probably from the good feeling of school being out when I was growing up:)
ReplyDeleteI enjoyed your pictures- beautiful!
Have a wonderful week, Kelli!
Hugs,
Linda C
I hope I got here before all the lemonade and cupcakes are gone*!!!
ReplyDeleteEverything looks so good*! _Ashley

ReplyDeleteKelli,
ReplyDeleteGreat pictures! The water lilly is so pretty.
Enjoying flowers and fresh fruit & vegetables are all part of what I am looking forward to this summer!

Hi Kelli,
ReplyDeleteA lovely post, as always. ;) June for me is like another Christmas. Just between my husband and mom and dad, I have one anniversary, two father’s days, and three birthdays to buy for. They are all within a 7-day period. I am thankful for all three lovely people. I just wish that they wouldn’t all have celebrations at the same time! :)
We close on our house June 18th and move!
ReplyDeleteKelli,
ReplyDeleteJust letting you know i got my card making kit.
Fun colors!!
Better get something made up and show you. =0)
Thanks, and thanks for hosting these events. They are very fun, and keep us challenged to do more.

ReplyDeleteI am looking forward to having your lemon cupcakes recipe...hint, hint, hint!!!!

I remember those lemon cream cupcakes from last year. I tried making them and they came out okay but didn't look as delicious as yours. Happy Birthday Emily.
ReplyDeleteHave a great June Kelli. Take care.
Happy June to you, Kelli,

How lovely Kelli! The quotes and photos match perfectly. My birthday is in June, and so is my middle name. One of my favorite months:)
