I must be related to this cat! Do you have a cat? Is it loving and friendly? We don't have any cats.
Does your cat give you the cold shoulder or turn it's back on you? Well, our dogs may not do that... but let me tell you if looks could kill, that would be "the look" that our dogs give. When they are in our laps and we make them get up... then you get "the look" for a few minutes before they turn and walk away from you.
Dad, where are you? Why aren't you up yet? Where is our treat? Hope your day is a beautiful Blessing! SMILE!
Oh what a wonderful day it is today. I see my Hummingbirds up in my Juniper trees and Vitex trees all the time. Can you imagine seeing a nest or babies? Now that would make my day! A bird in the hand is worth 2 in the nest! And I do need to check my ivy plant just like that one! Prayers for everyone in Ian's path! Also keeping your daughter in my prayers.
I am so proud of my beautiful granddaughter and her Quinceañera pictures! I took over 70 pictures on Saturday, mostly of them getting ready. So funny and stressful at the same time. The photographer was awesome and I can't wait to see her pictures as I took a couple of ones after she set them up.
I sat on the patio for a little bit yesterday as the storms went around us and watched the six or so hummingbirds going from feeder to tree to flowers as the wind shifted to cooler temperatures out of the north. We are in the upper 80's this week instead of upper 90's.
Does that mean Fall is here in Texas? Probably not yet or for very long but I will "chance one eye"! Praying for all of Florida and all the people in the path of Ian. Thanks for sharing in my joy and being my friend!
Good Morning! Now you knew I had to do Orange Hummingbirds, didn't you. They are all so very different and yet beautiful. We get to go see Nicole take her Quinceañera pictures today. She didn't want the party! Also hope to see all the pictures from Israel and the story behind each picture.
Good Morning! Do you have lots of color in your day? How many different colors do Hummingbirds come in? Why are all the ones at my house so plain? Do you have any at your house that are as colorful as any of these? Life is AMAZING and thanks for being my amazing friend. I am working on Friday! See you soon.
Hope you don't have a poopy day! We are going to tie a record of 99° as our "feel like" temperatures have been over 100° all week. First day of Fall is when??? Oh, TODAY!
What are you doing this beautiful Sunday? Do you like to fish? When we had our 500 acres, we had a beautiful pond with catfish and bass. I love to fish in a pond!
But if fishing just isn't your thing, come on over and let's just sit and chill for a while. I am sure we can solve some of the problems surrounding us. There is always a bench nearby where we can sit and share our friendship. Blessings and Hugs are always shared too! PRAYING FOR YOUR DAUGHTER!
Do you share your deepest and darkest secrets with anyone special like a spouse or a friend or in prayers?
The moon is just as important as the sun. It takes both for the plants to grow. After days of rain and darkness, how wonderful does the sunshine feel to you? And how much do we enjoy the night when it is time to lay down and rest?
I don't remember reaching for the sun... but we do reach for the stars and the moon! Ok, last one for a while...
Have you ever wondered if the moon is at the end of the road? Exactly where is it and where does it go?
There are thousands of clever pictures of people holding the moon but I've never thought about drinking it.
Does the tree grow up to the moon or does the moon grow down to the tree? Which do you think?
The moon could be at the end of the railroad tracks! That is as possible as it being at the end of the road.
But I'll bet that all of you that have been to the beach at night really know where the moon likes to be the best of all. Kissing the edge of the water each night.
Are you up late at night? Do you go outside at night or do you go out on the town at night?
Do you look up at the moon and wonder who else is looking at the same moon?
My cousin and I often take pictures of our moon and share it with each other and say, "We are looking at the same moon."
Even though the scenery surrounding the moon or the colors of the sky may not be the same since we live in different states.
Sometimes we can't even see the moon because the clouds have moved in to obscure it.
Then at times, the moon looks so big and looks so close to us that we could just reach up and touch it.
While in another state, far away, the moon looks like it is a very long way off and that the stars are trying to outshine it. Which is your favorite moon?
The moon was so beautiful last night. I love that I can see it coming up through my living room windows. There was not a breath of wind after a warm and humid day.
I bet if you looked real close, you could see the cow jumping over the moon. Perfect weekend for high school football and homecoming for my grandson. Perfect weekend for College Football. Also a perfect weekend for tailgating at the Cowboys game!
When you take a vacation and take pictures, do you ever think what it would look like at a different time of year or in a different season or under different weather conditions?
Have you ever captured a lightning strike on camera? How blessed is the person that captured this... a rainbow and lightning.
None of the lightning pictures I have are anything like these. Can you imagine... a heart and lightning going through a cloud. Amazing!
Have you ever known someone who got struck by lightning? After looking at this picture, just think about what happens in a body that gets zapped. I don't think I'm going outside with an umbrella anytime soon. I hope you will get out there and share your smile today!
Everything quieted down yesterday and we got all our errands completed. In WalMart, as we come to the end of an aisle, we always look both directions to make sure someone is not going to run over us as we venture out. Yesterday, after looking right and seeing someone in a glittery, very bright teal sparkle tank top, I quickly looked the other direction. Someone yelled, "PAM!" I thought, Oh No! She was the daughter of one of my best friends from South Texas. We began visiting in the middle of the store and another lady (neither of us knew) joined us. She overheard us talking about the Fire in Fate. I was sharing the pictures of the Fire, then my friend shared pictures of her dog, and our new "friend" also shared her dog pictures. You never know where a smile and kind words will lead you but it warms your heart.
I hope you will share your smile today and you just might meet someone new too!
This started around 5:30 am this Tuesday morning about 2 miles from our house. It was an apartment complex under construction. Just the framework was up and pallets of wood all around.
It is just off the I-30 exit and could be seen from many miles away. Of course you could not get out of our neighborhood because streets were blocked off. Also the interstate was backed up for many miles because of "onlookers".
We are so blessed that no one was injured that we know of right now. All that fresh lumber was a very hot fire and Fire Departments from all around joined in to help. Thank you!
I was watching a video of it and you could see the apartment structure collapsing as it moved through the building. After 3 hours or so the fire is contained and hopefully completely out now.
Not sure if we will be able to get to town today or not (Taco Salad Tuesday from Rosa's, you know). Right now we are just counting our blessings and sharing them with you.
We did not get a shower to come across and help put out the fire, but we were sure blessed with no wind to spread the fire either. Blessings upon Blessings!
