Sunset/Fingerprint Friday.

Thought this would be a good Fingerprint from God..

I caught the sun as it was setting behind our pine trees..It looked so beautiful..Again, it lifted my spirits..

Be sure to check out other Fingerprints at PamperingBeki..

A Beautiful Sunset.

There is something so soothing about the sunrise and sunset..Some mornings you start with a heavy heart, only to look outside and see a beautiful sunrise..The same thing happens in the evening.

So many times I feel the weight of the day, only to sing God's praises at night for letting me see His beauty.

The Moon..

Early this morning, the moon looked so beautiful.

The pictures are very peaceful..There is something about the moon, it always brings a smile to my face..Maybe because the "man on the moon" is smiling back at me..ha..Bet you didn't see that remark coming..

Luna Moth..

Here is a picture of a Luna Moth, that happened to get into our screen porch.

To me, it is another beautiful gift from God..even though none of the kids were really anxious to look at it. I made sure it was put outside, so it could go on its way. Course, I thanked it for coming to visit.

The Garden..Slow Going.

This type rose, you can use the rose hips for Jelly.

Haven't done it yet, but will try, one day.

Our garden is slow going. Weather has been terrible, so couldn't start early..This is the way it goes here..some years are better than others.

Course we might have a good fall and that will make up for all the lost time..

Happy 4th Of July..

This Is So Interesting.

This is a mirage in China. I couldn't believe it, when I read the article in Daily Mail, I thought it was so interesting..be sure to read about it. Amazing how these things happen..

Just a happy cloud on a beautiful day..Weather has been lovely and trying to enjoy every minute of it.

My Little Catbird.

My little catbird on the hook..had to move fast, since he didn't stay long..They are so cute and enjoy the sound they make, just like a cat..

Oh, the wonderful gifts from God..

Old Fashioned Iris.

What a happy site, two little iris flowers..These flowers were here when we bought the house and with my terrible gardening skills, I almost lost all of them..I get a weed whacker in my hand and everything goes down. I don't mean to, but I get carried away..Since I have not used the whacker, these two little flowers came up.

Well, now I am going to try and do things differently..will work with grass cutters by hand. Remember.....

It is never too late, to learn something good..

Interesting Sunset..After all the Storms.

What an odd sunset..But it was an odd day, yesterday..Tornadoes hit Massachusetts and did quite a bit of damage. We were under tornado watch too. So thankful nothing happened here.

Then as the sun was setting, it was just a different kind of sunset, as you can see..

Well, today brings a new day and the sun is shinning brightly..Isn't this the way life is?

One day so dark and the next day we rise above the darkness..May we all have the sun shinning in

our lives.

Storm Moving In..

I kept watching the darkness creep in..and heard the thunder in the distance..sure enough..lightening/wind/rain..then it passed.

Waiting for another one to roll through.

Morning Sky.

The morning sky was beautiful..but they are talking a bad storm this afternoon..At least, I took a few pictures this morning of the sun..Morning skies/evening skies are my favorite topic. It has been a long time getting a nice picture..thankful for these shots.

Till next time, keep looking up.

Happy Memorial Day.

May God Bless all our troops..Where would this country be without them?

May this blog pay tribute to all the troops..living and dead..God Bless America.

Nothing But Rain..

Okay, it is still raining and there is no change till Saturday, MAYBE...Now, I can take only so many pictures of the humming birds..but then I happened to catch another bird.

I was talking a mile a minute, to my husband, and didn't get an answer..came around the corner and now I know why he was so quiet..napping..He tells me he doesn't nap..Ha! The proof is in the picture..

Rainy weather is getting hard to take.

Till next time, keep looking up.

Humming Birds.

I was enjoying myself today watching the two male hummingbirds fighting over the feeder..They are so funny..They dive bomb each other. Then they sit in the rose bush and watch the feeder..If one goes to the feeder, the other comes after it.

I tried to catch a few good pictures, but this was the best I could do with my camera.

They gave me great joy..Happy little guys, even if they don't want to share with each other.

(I just added another picture, close up of female)

Till next time, keep looking up.

Our Beautiful Orioles

Whenever I put the humming bird feeder out in the spring..The orioles get to it first..What a beautiful color bird...

These are the happy little things God gives us to enjoy..Spring is a very happy time.

Happy Mother's Day..

Bluets.

This is a happy little spring flower.

It is the first little wild flower that covers the back yard in spring..Such a pretty site..It is called Bluets..and if you click on the second picture, you can see it is tipped in a soft blue.

Spring is slow coming this year. Very cold mornings and we are having so much rain. Then you look out in the back yard and see the Bluets and they bring a smile to your face. Life is good.

Pope John Paul

Today Pope John Paul will be beatified..What a wonderful Pope he was..

Since my mother was Polish, her mom/dad came from Poland, he was always very loved in our family..I use to tease her and say he looked like a relative..

Just a word about his love and dignity..He could have stepped down when he was very sick, in the end of his reign..but continued to go on, even though he was having a hard time talking..Sometimes, I would marvel at him. The humility he had..

May he pray for all of us on earth, since our battle is not yet over and may we all live by his love for each other.
