A Bit Late

So sorry dear friends for posting a bit late.  With it being the holiday weekend just got busy with a cookout gathering and such.  Hope all of you who are celebrating Memorial Day have a lovely one.

Thought I would share a few happenings today.

Discovered two little baby robins this past week.

There this is a better shot.  Don't want to get Mama upset by getting too near the nest.

She has been keeping a careful watch.

The variety of this peony escapes me but am so delighted with how it is  a lovely rosy peach, turns lighter and then white.  Planted it back a couple of summers ago and each year it seems to have more blooms.  This is where a garden journal would come in handy.  Maybe in my "next life" will keep one :)!!

Kelsey a year old

Last but not least - look who turned a year old last week.  She has been a challenge getting her to this point.

After several pair of shoes gone...eyeglasses chewed, replacement of two sets of bathroom rugs, a garden hose and trying to keep holes in the yard filled - we think she is here to stay.  Is she spoiled?  You betcha!!

Please take a moment today to "look up" and remember all those who gave their lives here in America and all over the world so that we may live freely.  God Bless and have a blessed week.

Hugs

Time

Friends where has the time gone?  It is hard to believe that the Fourth of July is here.

I hope that all those who are celebrating this holiday in the USA are having a lovely day.

In spite of our dry weather at Harmony Hills the flowers still continue to bloom.

The raspberries were plentiful and the freezer is now filled with more than enough for several pies.

As we move forward into a new month hope everyone is savoring this season wherever you live.

I will leave you now with one of my favorite songs... America the Beautiful. 

God Bless

Come see what July's visit has brought.



Orange Lilies...

A different butterfly...

 
Black Raspberries on the vine...

Some picked waiting for a pie...

God Bless Everyone!

Raise it High!

Raise it proudly...



                     Raise it high...




                            Have a Happy Fourth of July!

Remembering

Tomorrow I will be remembering all those who served this country well.   They stood up and answered when duty called.   I live free because they did.

These soldiers fought in far away places.   They endured and suffered much.  Some fell never to return.   Others came back wounded and lost.

Why?

They knew that freedom was the only way.   Even if it cost everything.

What a blessing it is to choose where to live and work!   What a privilege to worship as one sees fit!   What a gift it is to be free!     

                                                                  Tomorrow I will be remembering!
