We discovered that London loved watermelon. When she saw one on the kitchen counter, she cried “WawaMELon!!” and jumped up and down. She was NOT happy that she had to wait until after her nap in the afternoon, but thank goodness it’s easy to distract an almost-two year old. (She will be two on August 31).

The picture below was taken a few days ago. We were having a perfectly beautiful, hot day and my fabulous rose bush was blooming its brains out again. And then the hail struck and ruined it all. Sometimes Mother Nature can be a b****.

And finally, I thought I’d share with you Pantone’s predicted hot colors for Fall 2011. For the most part, I really like the pallette. The bamboo could go, IMHO. And why is Quarry in there? I get the icy blender Orchid Hush (sort of), but Quarry? Just asking…. Pantone says
Orchid Hush, a unique tone of gray with complex orchid
undertones, blends well with any other color in the palette.
Quarry, a reliable medium gray, remains, as always,
a practical, dependable staple.
Is Quarry a “staple” in your wardrobe? Tell me what you think about these colors! And if you would like to visit Pantone’s site, you can visit it here.
And now, back to

Well, I think I could do without bamboo,orchid hush, and quarry, which to my eyes looks more like a blue-grey than a medium grey. But maybe that's just me?
London is just adorable!
Aren't grandkids the BEST! I love when others share their grandkids. It means those kids really have someone special in their life. Sorry you got hail too. As for Pantone colors...I love all colors whether "in" or "out". Take care, Connie
It's the orchid that makes the quarry look out of sorts... Did a little photo editing and when the orchid blush is out you can see there is a harmony of value with all the rest.... even quarry... IMHO... and of course I always have an opinion... Hugs
London is so beautiful! Too bad about your rosebush as it was so stunning!
Dammy, huh! When my 16 YO grandson called me Bamma it stuck forever. That was OK with me, because I was reluctant to accept being called Grandma when I was 44 ~lol~ Now I am always Bamma, Bammy or Bam.
Such sweet pics. Your GD is absolutely beautiful.
I like the color pallet and Gerry, of course, is totally right.
Have a great weekend.
Cute little girl! I love all the colours in that palette - even quarry!
Cathy, London is a very precious little girl, your lucky to have her and of course she is also lucky to have you in her life..Debbie (Maine)
I love "Papa's" Blues Brothers Tshirt!
Great pics of London, cute cute cute! Dammy, she's cute! Love that!
:( about the hail, we didn't get any up north here, but we had some storms roll over like trains a week ago. This has been a terrific weekend.
Smiles to you!
London is getting cuter by the minute and boy do those minutes fly by.
Grandpa looks like he is having as good a time as she is.
Don't "sweat" too much in that shop.

Hugs, Bev
