Hello, It's a Rainy day outside today. I miss the sunshine.
So what do you say we create some of our own. Let's join in on the fun of Good Fences and Little Things Thursday.
GOOD FENCES is Hosted by TexWisGirl (aka Theresa) from The Run "A" Round Ranch.
This Decorative Fence Top sets off the delicate Lilac Blooms perfectly and don't you just love the Bokeh in this shot.
LITTLE THINGS THURSDAY is hosted by Kim Cunningham from Little by Little.
10 Little Things I'm thankful for today:
1. Soft Rain to nourish the earth and keep me from having to water the flower beds and the lawn.
2. My Drizzle Boots that I inherited from my Grandma. Mine are old but you can still buy them. They work great and my feet didn't get wet while I walked Coleen to school.
3. A Nice cup of Hot Coffee after I got back from taking Coleen to school.
4. Pic Monkey for editing photos. Oh & Pixlr-o-Matic too.
5. That the store finally got the Yoplait Blackberry Yogurt back in stock, it's my favorite.
6. I don't have a headache this morning, my nose isn't running, my knee doesn't hurt and my back feels pretty decent. Yeah!
7. All my sweet cats & the ones that I take care of outside too. They make me happy.
8. It's quiet in the house.
9. Call from hubby just to say hello and how's your day going.
10. Spending time with all of you and visiting your wonderful blogs.
i LOVE your lilacs and miss them from my wisconsin days. they don't grow here and i miss their scent.

ReplyDeleteBeautiful fence and lilac pictures. It will be another month before we have blooming lilacs.
A good cup of coffee while reading blogs on a rainy day sounds good to me. I am finding that I need sunny days with out wind, they make chores more enjoyable. I enjoy an empty quiet house too.
Your initial fence shot with the flowers is beautiful. Nice post that I found very interesting.
ReplyDeleteLove those raindrops on the lilac blooms- your pictures make me anxious for ours to start blooming already!
ReplyDeleteWe're getting thunderstorms here. I hope you enjoy a Blessed Easter.
