The Beauty Of Summer.

 I enjoy summer so much..It can get very hot, but usually the sea breeze will keep us cool.
Just a few pictures of things in the yard..always fun to catch a glimpse of things going by..so much we miss in life, by not paying attention.

Little Nest.

I was cutting down a bush and saw this..well, I stopped everything and left..Hope the Robin will come back..I am sure she will, since I won't go near there till the eggs are hatched and they are off..

Beautiful Morning.

The sun had such beautiful rays, this morning..Just stunning. My pictures don't do it any justice.
Looking up, always gives me peace..

Little Visitor.

You have to admit, he is cute..even though he eats all my bird food..I get a laugh watching him run all over the place.
Now this is what they mean by getting a little happiness out of life..enjoy.

Memorial Day

I always try and write a blog on Memorial Day..and usually for Chris..only because I knew him. He was at my daughter's wedding with his wife..They were great friends and were at USM together.

I can never thank all the wonderful men/woman that fight for our freedom..so many lives were lost in the process.
God Bless All Of Our Men/Woman that died to keep us free..God Bless America.

Happy Easter to All..

These are the little bunnies I crocheted for my grandchildren, this Easter..
They were a hit..and it was worth all the crocheting, even though at times, I did think I would never make it...then I said a little prayer over them once I finished, to protect my dear grandchildren.
Hope you all had a wonderful Easter..we did..being all together is always special..but the love we have for one another is a gift from God..and none of us take it lightly..

Good Thing It Isn't Thanksgiving Time...

Guess this guy was looking for a mate..He was in my backyard and let out a gobble noise..How funny.
As soon as he saw me, off he went.
It is always fun in the spring..you just never know what you will see in your yard.

Little Chickadee..

My little Chickadee...Didn't he pose so nicely for me? They are such fun to watch and give me many laughs.
They are the state bird. When snow is all around, so are they, which is nice.

The Cardinal

A cardinal is a representative of a loved one who has passed. When you see one, it means they are visiting you. They usually show up when you most need them or miss them. They also make an appearance during times of celebration as well as despair to let you know they will always be with you. Look for them, they'll appear.


This to me is a beautiful thought..as I near a year George has been gone..(the cardinal was singing so loud all during his final days).Had never heard of this..then someone told my daughter they are called .."The Angel Bird"...there is so much we miss, because of things going on around us..but the love of God is with us, if we just take the time to be still and listen...

A Sign Of Spring..

Robins, a sign of spring. You are suppose to make a wish on the first one you see.
These are such cute birds. Always enjoy when they are back in my yard.
Now I won't kid you, they must be wearing long johns, it is freezing out ..spring is somewhere out there and I am going to believe them.

Few Pictures..

First a couple of pictures with the sun rising and hitting the trees..It really did look beautiful..even though I am so tired of snow. Something about the way the light hit the trees..
Next two pictures of the moon..I caught it in the trees..Doesn't it look like it is stuck in the branches?
You have to give me credit..I did get a picture without snow.

Happy Valentine's Day to All..

Sending my Angel of Love to all of you...Happy Valentine's Day..may we all spread Love..

Snow, What is new??

I am trying to think about blogging..but my pictures are all the same..snow, snow falling, ice on trees, more snow..I know it gets boring, after awhile, so I haven't put any pictures up. Well, will put a few more snow shots..tomorrow we are getting another bad snow storm. One thing here, we are use to it..the poor people in the south are having a terrible time..I always keep a coal stove in my kitchen..just in case we lose electric. One thing I learned living here..be self sufficient or else you will end up in trouble.

The Cardinal

As I have written about the Cardinal and hearing him all through my husbands sickness and throughout the summer into fall..and he is still around here..
Well, it was so interesting how someone told my daughter..The Cardinal is called The Angel Bird...
What a beautiful thought and wanted to share with everyone..it gives great peace..Makes you feel you are really being looked out for..and never really alone

Till next time, keep looking up.

Our Cardinal

Such a beautiful bird and such a happy memory..
We never take anything for granted..and so thankful..

Wondering Where I am....???

So sorry to have been gone..Got a case of shingles and I am just getting better..was in the eye and still having troubles seeing..but I am getting better..
Sending love to all..
My motto:  I am a survivor, not a victim...Sad this happened to me and it hasn't been easy..but my job is not done yet...
