There are days that you just need 'our' time ... & today is one of them. The skies are blue, an occasional dot of white puffy clouds floating by, the breeze is a crisp & cool strong breeze ... nearly feels like autumn. The yard sale is over & we did well. Now we are preparing for the auction to sell off our treasures in Sept. ...
never know what I will find in our cupboards & closets ... kind of fun to touch & see the memories that we have gathered.
A lovely country ride is so peaceful & relaxing ... so love the rolling hills & dotted with farm scenes
Our gardens are alive with butterflies this year ...
This is the first blossom of our new hosta ...
Red pops by my office window for visits throughout the day, love watching my birds ...
The last of our 100+ gladiolas ...
We awoke this past week to see only (1) of our many maples in full dress ... probably because of the stress of all the rains, etc. What a gorgeous gown she wears ...
When we were in Cincinnati we visited a garden & they gave us another black eyed susan & she's blooming her britches off ...
It is so delightful in the morning to walk to the gardens & see what blossoms have burst forth ...
Just a wee peek at our gorgeous florals ...
Wonderful butterflies ...
A dragonfly here & there ...
I love my gorgeous Martha Washington geranium ...
But the best joy of all is our little dumpling ...
You truly are blessed dear Marydon! I enjoyed every single photo of your lovely world. Your little dumpling is such a doll!
ReplyDeletemuch love from me...
Marydon your photos are so beautiful! Your garden is in full bloom and drop dead gorgeous!
ReplyDeleteThe butterflies are beautiful!!!
ReplyDeleteI love all the colors of the flowers.
I kinda hate to see the maple trees start to get color. Have the nights been cool? I'm not ready for Fall.
I'm a solar driven soul and I love the long days of sunlight.
You are a beautiful woman!
LOVELY GARDEN AND ALWAYS LOVE YOUR LOVE IS...
