The simplest things can make me the happiest! One of those is all the color I'm beginning to see from my kitchen bay window these days. I can sit at my table and enjoy the view! (No curtains or blinds on those windows)!!
Just in the past few weeks, my azaela bushes have bloomed.
Then shortly after, my knockout rose bushes (love those bushes) started getting buds on them and some have already bloomed!
Not only do I get to see these sitting from my table, but we walk past them every time we walk to or from the car to go anywhere (which is alot, believe me)!
They are just covered with buds about to explode with colorful blooms!
I'm still waiting on my huge crape mrytle that frames the pool deck entrance to bloom. It doesn't bloom until a little later, but it really makes a colorful statement out there as a focal point when it does! Click here for a picture of it in bloom last year!
God really was creative with all the colors he designed for the flowers and bushes. I'm just so thankful for these little things....the beauty in the colors outside my window! :)
Have you taken a minute to enjoy the simple things and thank God for them?
Beautiful Tammy,,,have a great evening.

I have always been so grateful that I am not blind so that I can see color. What a blessing!! Great post, Tammy. Have a nice weekend. Julie
ReplyDeleteI love my knock out roses, mine are new this year but are already in full bloom.

All of the flowers look so pretty. We had snow yesterday, and today the kids are outside in short sleeved shirts. Go figure :-) I'm so glad to read about another step along the way to getting Luke. As Marla at Always Nesting would say, "Woo Hoo!" You should start sharing these things on her Woo Hoo Wednesday!

What wonderful colors! Only things in my yard with color are my dandelions...
ReplyDeleteHave a great weekend!
I love our backyard! When I'm doing math it's relaxing to look up and see all those pretty colors! LOL! You know how frustrating math is. I love our bushes most of all. And I like our Azelea bush too.
ReplyDeleteLove you! 8,
Love Joy :)
oh I have been looking outside at all of the color too. Isn't it just beautiful? I love the simple things too. Those are the important things. I have enjoyed my visit to your blog.
ReplyDeleteI had to laugh at Robyn's comment about her dandelions. :)
ReplyDeleteI just love this time of year (minus the tornadoes). Everything is in bloom and just beautiful!
