Blooming Limelight

The Limelight hydrangea that we planted on the dining patio this past spring are in full bloom.

After having worked all last summer on building the dining patio (go here and here), it was truly wonderful to begin this summer with the sole task of setting up the table and chairs.

The vigorous growth of the Limelight over the past few months has really added a nice texture to the dining patio.

Aren't the Limelight blossoms sweet?

We are still working on finishing the dining room. Between enjoying our recent company, Hubby's work obligations, and the sheer lack of hours in the day, there's still some painting to do and a few odds and ends to pull together.

As a result, we've been enjoying the dining patio more than ever. We never tire of eating outdoors on these beautiful warm summer days.

Mmmm...don't you just love summer.

UPDATE: new table and chairs here.
