Thankful Thursday In The Garden Of Life

Gracie says WELCOME!

She's keeping a keen eye out on everything going on in the Garden.

Yep things are still blooming here.
Our purple Dahlia is still going, but we don't think for much longer.

Mom is terrible with the names of the flowers. But she does know this is a perennial.
So you'll see more of it next spring.

The bumbles are still gathering the pollen off of this flowering bush.

We hope your Gardens are bringing your joy, whether they have gone to sleep for the colder months or not, you know that soon they will be ripe with beauty again in the spring.
Happy Gardens!

Thankful Thursday In The Garden

Today is Meow Like A Pirate day and we wanted to be a part of the festivities...so we let Angel Abby dream her dream of finding some ale and treasure!

Meowwwwwwwwwwww.....

Gracie Welcomes you to our Special
Thankful Thursday In The Garden.

Gracie: I don't know why Momma has been outside running around chasing butterflies, but she has and this is the one she wanted so much to capture on film. She says this is Abby's Butterfly.

So beautiful.

It's our Daddy's purrday today.
He is older than Momma, and
she is as old as dirt.
So, how old does that make him?
O-L-D!

Happy birthday Daddy!
*kisses*
So this is how Momma spent her time in the garden this week.
Chasing butterflies.

Momma says do you see the resemblances?
It may all be in her head, because she sees Abby everywhere she looks.
***
But, the butterfly is so beautiful,
as beautiful as my dear sweet beloved girl.
Momma misses you baby.
Misses you like nobody's business.

again.

As you can see Gracie is amazed at the buzzing going on.
Little Miss Bumble is making lots of visits to the coneflowers.

Very pretty coneflowers.

Lovely roses.

We hope you are having as much fun in your Garden

Until next week....

Gracie welcomes you into our
Garden this week!

She is keeping an eye out on everything
going on.

Mom is playing around with her camera.

And some photoshopping!

 

But wait!
There is something new
and Yellow.

Mom has a potting bench now!
Dad made this for her this week
and she painted it yellow.
I wish you could have seen Mom and Dad
moving this.
It was a hoot!

We hope you enjoyed our
unusual trip around the garden this week.
We hope yours is growing well!
Remember:
Garden Happy!

Gracie welcomes you to our
garden this week!

Last week Mom showed you the Momma birdie
sitting on the nest in her double impatient.

Well she went out and this week is what is
peepin!

For the life of her she couldn't get the "money" shot
she wanted.
It was definitely too dark and well the babies were
screaming for food.

The Momma and Daddy birdies were around too!

 

Then there was this to content with too.

Right after Mom got inside,
it began to pour water out of the sky!

So all the pretty flowers got a nice soaking!
We hope you enjoyed this unusual visit to the
garden and we hope you garden is growing!

Sad news to report.
Since we had crafted this post there is an update.
Yesterday while I was on the back porch.
I heard the parent birds chirping their warning.
I couldn't see anything.
But, I figured there was some danger.
Later on I went to check the nest and
all four chicks are gone.
It must have been a snake.
The parents have still been coming with food
to the nest and it's sad and cruel,
but it's the way of nature.
