Some Week's Happenings

Mr. Groundhog
Here are some week's happenings.   Hope they make you smile.

Look who found himself up a tree.














Schindler

This ornery boy may have caused this particular happening.  Shame on him!














Madam Butterfly decided to swing by for a visit.















These sweet scented blooms were possibly the reason for her call.















 That rhubarb from the previous post...














well it ended up in a delicious dessert.   Naturally all calories were removed!














wip

Lastly a bit more painting was done...not finished yet but making progress.














  We are so glad you stopped to check in on our week's happenings.

Hope you are smiling!

"...the cheerful heart has a continual feast."  Proverbs 15:15b (NIV)

Hugs Debbie

  3. Just had my first taste of rhubarb the other day in a muffin. I would much rather taste it in that crumble. Love the pics. Thought that was a beaver in the tree.

  4. Adorable photo!

    I thought at first the groundhog is a koala bear, and y'all are in Australia on vacation. Prayers for your Australia vacation. :)

  5. Debbie, I love all your photos and the groundhog is adorable! This is the first time I have ever seen one on a tree! Thank you so much for sharing and sending you warm hugs and much love.

  6. That groundhog is so cute. He looks like a squirrel. Do they normally climb up trees or did someone just scare him?

  8. Oh YES...I am smiling. It made my day seeing Schindler on patrol!
    Instinct is a wonderful thing.
    I wonder how long did Mr Groundhog had to stay up there before you took mercy on him?
    Love your beautiful painting. I can see how you are really developing the background - very striking.

  9. I love your cards Debbie, just beautiful! And your dog seem quite pleased to me... He's the culprit , I'm sure. :) Have a pleasant week.
    Here we have a new family of squirrels eating litterally my neighbour's shed and the rhubard is almost ready for one of my favorite dessert, a rhubarb dowdy! Life is good, we are grateful! Take care, Hugs

  12. Hi Deb,

    Your works-in-progress are coming along so well. And I LOVE the photo of the treed groundhog - had no idea they did trees :)

    My old computer is slowly giving up on all functions. I can no longer do blog posts, so I will be out of the loop for a few months till I can get a new one. I'll try to keep up as best I can ...

  14. I love rhubarb pie--and you'll have to share your process for removing all the calories :)! Cute groundhog--I didn't know they could climb. I guess when you HAVE to do something, you find a way to do it.

  15. Debbie,

    You sure had a bunch of wonderful visitors. I have never seen a groundhog before so that was a treat. And could you please FedEx some of the rhubarb crisp to CA? That would be great!

    Beautiful paintings. Looks like you are enjoying yourself!
    Take care and have a good week,
    Libby

  21. Love your paintings, love rhubarb and love your sweet Shindler! Groundhogs are so unusual, we used to have one living here years ago until the raccoons chased him out of his den. I had no idea they could climb that high in a tree, but guess if some one is chasing you -you can! LOL, poor guy!
