Thank you for your responses... Leaves (their colors not picking them up) and Pumpkins ( especially in PIES) are what makes Fall the best and watching our animals enjoy it all. Now where is that cat hiding... Share your smile! I miss you and hope you are feeling OK!
Fall even made it to Texas this week. Yes, we will still hit 90° later this week but how nice is it to take a little stroll early in the mornings.
The vibrant contrast in colors this time of year is really something to enjoy on your walks.
Lots of people are out walking their dogs but it is fun to see the dogs playing in the raked piles of leaves on their own too.
Of course the kids are all out playing in the nicer weather too. The joy of their spirit puts a happy smile on our faces as we watch them jumping all around.
That last one is one of my favorite pictures. Let us all be neighborly. Share your smile and your blessings with everyone you meet and enjoy the weekend!
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!
The view from our house is nothing like any of these pictures. Is your view this nice from your home? Do you think it would be worth living far away from town to look at this every day, all day? Do you have a second home with this kind of view? I loved the Ranch (500 acres) when my parents owned it and had to maintain it. But it was always a lot of work and commitment and $ cost. I do enjoy the view from our patio and it is freshly mowed right now. I am very thankful for our home and grateful for the beautiful pictures to view and share with friends!
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!
My phone reminded me this morning that it is your birthday! However, I am just now getting here as I am way behind this week already. Happy Birthday Nancy! Praying you will have a wonderful day and week for your Blessed Birthday! So glad we are friends!
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!
Today just sounds like a good day to read. Do you have a cat that will cuddle up with you while you read? I don't but I bet there will be a dog in my lap.
Several things could improve on all this. Oh, don't worry, coffee is already in hand, probably an empty coffee cup or already refilled. But RAIN on the other hand is something we are again praying for in Texas. There is none in the 10 day forecast either, just mid 90's.
All I can say is while I do have 3 book shelves full of books (mostly read), the 5,982 items in my Kindle don't take up as much room. Yes, I can't resist a good free book. So for now
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! The door is always open...
