Pink Saturday.

Fall is on it's way but it is still hot here.

 

 

 Coleus going to seed.

 

 

 

The very first thing I do each morning.

Coffee and crossword.

Trying to keep this old brain working.

Pink Saturday with a heavy heart.

It is Pink Saturday and one of my favorite memes.

Hope my computer is finally fixed after 4 attempts.

Last of August and our Crepe Myrtle is finally blooming.

Did not take my geranium outside this summer and it is just now blooming inside.

Love this geranium.

The leaf of the geranium is one of my favorites.

With my friends /Sisters of Charity at Nazareth Kentucky,

mourning the brutal murder of

Paula Merrill, scn and her co-worker Sr. Margaret.

Nurse Practitioners in one of the poorest sections of Mississippi.

Many, many persons with a heavy heart this week-end and in this case the only health care providers in that part of the state and folks will be without their kindness, generosity and life saving care they need.

In Jesus name, we pray.

In the Pink Saturday

We all love 

Pink Saturday.

I like to buy from Swann's because I can see online all the nutritional counts before I buy and I am not one to go out to the grocery store.

HH does all of the grocery shopping but some things are harder to find than others, so I order different things I like online.

These are White Chocolate Strawberry Scones.

Love them with a cup of tea in the afternoon.

They come in a square and are scored so as to be able to select to cook only one if you would like.

Finally tomatoes coming on.

Happy 4th of July.

 

 

Pink Saturday and all flowers blooming.

Pink Saturday and summer in full force.

Our tomatoes are coming on all all our flowers are blooming now.

Love it

After a good pruning Knockout Roses coming on new growth.

Love our lilies.
Planted four of these 17 years ago when we moved into this house to represent our 4 daughter.
They have come up every year.

Planted a flower to represent everyone in the family.
These are the only ones still coming up.

Pink Saturday and more

Love Walmart's parking lot full of flowers.

When our granddaughter was expecting her first child and our first greatgrandchild she and her hubby had an an announcement party.

Expectant dad and mom invited us over for a party and he held a handful of blue balloons and she a handful of pink balloons.

Whichever sex their child was, the one holding the right color of balloons let them loose into the air.

They made us all wait and guess and tease us and when the blue balloons were released we all yelled and jumped for joy.

It was a fun time and a very creative way of announcing they were expecting a son.

He is two now and a most precious little boy.

Reminds me of Prince George.

Obsessed with hummingbirds.

The ruby-throated hummingbird is a wonder of migration. Every winter it makes an amazing journey. Some have been known to make a journey of 2500 miles or more, from Alaska to Central America. Because  of it, the hummingbird is a symbol for accomplishing that which seems impossible. It will teach you how to find the miracle of joyful living from your own life circumstances.

We are finally getting our share of hummingbirds at our feeder.
They are not pink but I cannot help but share.

I hung these petunias near the feeder to help attract them.
They were slow getting to our area as everyone has mentioned it.

The very first hummer we saw this year.

I got this shot one day while sitting on my deck.
I printed it out and plan on painting it and putting it on canvas.

Pink Saturday and some other things.

Loving these calla lilies.

 Every spring we have a street marked off for sidewalk art. This is one of the more colorful ones I liked.

The event is called Via Colori Kentucy

Latest Goodwill find.

Growing things are almost "In the Pink."

Nothing but rain 7 days in a row.

Good for the flowers and tomatoes but they really do need the sun.

Pink Phlox

Herbs, petunias, heather and tomato plants doing okay but should be further along than this.

 The little sun we have had has helped the tomato plants somewhat.
