Spring is definitely in full swing at our place. Every day seems to yield a new bloom or flower. The rosebushes have innumerable blooms waiting to burst forth. The lilac trees are flowering, Mom’s day lily is starting to show flowers, and life is brand new! To top that off, Mike is planting hundreds of bulbs, so it should be a colorful show all spring and summer long! Thank God for his beautiful creation, so verdant and full of various shades and hues. The picture above is of one of our pink Azaleas in the backyard. We have a red one in the front yard that looks so perfect, people have commented that it looks artificial! But it’s REAL!
How beautiful, Karen! I saw the other photos of your flowers on your Flickr account and they were gorgeous!
It must make you feel good inside when you look out at all the colors and beauty God blessed you with.
Hi Tena, thanks for stopping by. Indeed it does make us feel good inside to see all God’s beauty right in our own backyard. Love you!
I have been starting to get that itch to plant some flowers! We are traveling so much this summer I’m not sure what I’ll plant, but I enjoy this season most of all!! Hi Rochelle. Thanks for stopping by. Hope you enjoy all that traveling!
Cuz, your flowers are absolutely beautiful!!! You are blessed with Grandma Contino’s green thumb!!Cuz, it’s so good to hear from you! I remember those beautiful roses of yours. Do you still have them? I’ll have to send you some photos of our roses once they bloom. Love ya!
The flowers are so beautiful Karen. I just love spring time even if it triggers my allergies so bad. I love the signs of new life in the trees bringing forth new leaves, flowers blooming, and the grass turning green again. I love the sounds of birds singing, bees buzzing, children laughing and playing. It just reminds me of the new life that God gave to us when He came into our lives.Jolene, I can definitely relate to those allergies you mentioned. I’m coughing and wheezing and sneezing, but I’m enjoying the signs of new life as well. Love you!
