I smell a fish and Ice cream!
Don't you just love my new cobalt blue solar powered fish? I do!~ My Mom bought Mike and I this for our Anniversary....it works awesome too. I put it out by our bright yellow bench
Of course I have been busy with my spray can in hand
This was the arbor last year
What a difference a year makes
Last year Mike bought me this arbor for my Birthday....I planted some yellow jasmine, that has really taken off this year. I am thinking by the end of summer it should be entirely covered.
I have a question....these three cherry blossom trees are in the front of our home...this year they started getting cherries.....are they edible???? They never had them til this year...we where so excited. Here is a picture of the trees. They where scrawny when we moved here four years ago.
From drab to bright and happy flowers!
One of the nicest things about our little town....we still have an ice cream man, of course Jack is the first kid out the door.
Happy Memorial Day Y'all!~
Thanks to all the hosts I will be linking up with this week.

I adore that little fish fountain! How cute is that! I want one for my deck!!! Love the yellow and the flowers. Your yard is looking good!!
The blue fish is adorable. I love the sound of water outside but don't have anywhere to plug a fountain in. I didn't realize they made solar power ones now! I'm going to have to find me one! And I LOVE the yellow flowers you spray painted. So bright and cheery!
your spray painting is addictive... come spray paint my stuff! haha.
And your title got the song "I smell sex and candy" stuck in my head... haha
Debbie, that little blue fish fountain is so cute. Your mom did good. Those flowers look so much better yellow and your jasmine has done good. I don't know anything about those cherries. Have a great day tomorrow.
Hey Debbie-Hope your enjoying this nice long weekend. Love that cute little fishy fountain your mom bought you and you found the perfect spot for it!!It's so relaxing listening to the sound of the water!
I love your cobalt fish and your beautiful arbor! The picture of your son with the sno-cone just says "summer is here"! Love it!
That fountain is wonderful and looks so good near your bright yellow bench! I'm so jealous of the ice cream fellow in your neighborhood. We use to have one and suddenly she is no longer! Oh well we have the Schwans Man and their ice cream is yummo!
I adore the photograph of that little kid with his bare feet and ice-cream!
The yellow freshly-painted flowers are a charm, beautifully added!
I'm sure those cherries are edible. Try one. You might just like them (or maybe you'll like them where they are, on the tree).
The little fish is such a cute thing! So is the arbor- your people know you so well and are so good with gifting ideas. You are great with putting them to use of course!
Lovely trees!
Thumbs up! :) :)
Happy Memorial day to you to debbie! I love that blue fish. Makes ya wanna just dive right on in there doesnt it? lol...
Oh how cute! I love it...it is so perfect for you in htat beautiful blue color that just screans Debbie;)!
Your garden is just lovely...Love...love...love!
Happy Memorial Day!

Love the flowers too:)!
Love the blue fish fountain! Yay Mom!!! Big Kudos!!! The flowers painted yellow look great. But again it's the jasmine (this time on that adorable arbor) that has got me! Loooove it! I've gotta go get some!
Oh, sorry, meant to say, I don't know a thing about those berries! Maybe you could take a branch to a local garden nursery and inquire, before you eat one! LOL!
Hey Debbie, I am so jealous of the solar fish, my yard is almost all shade. I love the flower transformations. You are having just too much fun with that yellow paint. Lastly, we sooooooooooo miss our Ice Cream Man! We now live in an unincorporated area ... no Ice Cream Man :(.
Love the fish, love the ice cream "dog".
I love all your pictures! They're just great. :) And you're little spray painted flowers are too cute.
I miss the ice cream man - you don't want to send the kids out to one where I live. . .
(Thanks for stopping by - I'm doing the same from MM)
I love all your redows. The sunflowers are so cute. The paint made such a differene.

I just looked at some jasmine yesterday, and after seeing yours, I wish I would've gotten it! Your yard is lookin' good!!
I wish I was your neighbor! That is the highest compliment I could pay someone! What a fun person and a fun house!

PS I didn't see that ugly lantern anywhere, thank God!
The fish is so cool. I also didn't realize they had solar powered ones. I am going to have to go hunt for one.
Great color combo/painting those to contrast with the blue fish! And the arbor flower growth from last year to this is wonderful, too!
ENJOY!!!
Blessings to you,

You garden sound colourful without even having flowers.
The berries or cherries are edible, I used to have one in my old home, it took a few years before we had any cherries, they are really lovely, cost a fortune in the shops when they are out of season.
What a sunshiny post! Your garden is looking fabulous and that blue fish is too cute. Hope you find an answer about those berries-they look great but you would want to be sure before eating one!
Best wishes,
Natasha.
That spot of blue sure makes a cherry statement, Debbie. Happy Blue Monday.
BTW: your link was "broken," and I fixed it for you.
Beautiful blue fish fountain, Debbie..and the sun flowers are vibrant just as they should be. Have a wonderful day.
Love the blue solar fish water feature. The mosaic looks wonderful with the yellow shots in it. Have a wonderful week.
Hi Debbie, I love the blue fish fountain, it looks fabulous next to your yellow bench. It's amazing how fast the arbor is filling in, looks great! I love your yellow flowers, they are so cute, just like you:)I love the picture of Jack, we are lucky enough to still have the icecream truck come by with his music blaring, I love it!
Hugz,
Kim
LOVE that blue fish fountain!!
Hi Debbie,
Hope you're enjoying a long weekend with your family. Love your arbor - the plants have really taken off in a short time!
Amanda
You got a beautiful blue fish fountain. I love it! It seems like you enjoy spraying :-) happy Blue Monday!
Belle
What a super neat blog you have. Loved all your shots.
Your yellow flower tranformation is great. MB
I love the flowers painted yellow. very cute!
I wish I lived somewhere long enough to have an arbor with flowers covering it. Maybe if we move to SC, I will be there around 3 yrs. so I can have something like that. I love yours.
Ok with a title like that I was not sure where you were headed!! Love it all! ;)
Love the new fish, Deb! I do believe the cherries are edible. We ahve a cherry tree too but the darn squirrels eat them all up before we can get ONE!!! They are usually alittle bitter though. Have a great day....and have some ice cream!:):) XO, Pinky
Oh my I so love the colors in your yard. Happy Monday!
BM-Memorial day
If it's okay by you, can I come live in your backyard? It looks like a simply delicious place to be!
You've got a great backyard. LOVE that fish. I want one!!!!!!!!
Dosen't blue and yellow go together just smashingly well. Love the dark blue fish. I love your sunflowers-I need them-I live here in Kansas!!! Your arbour looks great too.

Happy Blue Monday and Happy Memorial Day!

I just love this time of year, after all of the pollen has gone and the heat isn't toooo bad:)
Hugs,
Lynn♥
Those flowers are sooo cute! Great summer pics. :-)
You have a very nice blog and truly lovely yard. I think the little blue fish is the best of all.
LOVE the bright blue fish by the yellow bench! :)
Your making me wish I had a garden...and ICE CREAM! haha Nice to have you at Anything Related again! ~Bridgette
What a difference spray paint makes! Your metal flowers are so cheery now.
Thanks for linking up to my party at the Brambleberry Cottage.
The two parties I have up are open for a week if your care to share anymore of your great tips, tricks, or transformations.
