The heavens are telling of the glory of God;
And their expanse is declaring the work of His hands.
Psalms 19:1

Sometimes bumblebees get caught in our Daturas….
While walking Mr. Bentley, our Shih Tzu, I took these pictures from our yard. Besides the recent post about the birthday party my daughter attended, It’s been a while since I’ve posted anything non fiber related, right? I’m thinking, it’s time I post photos of something else…
Curls recently posted lovely pictures of her flowers, and that was the kick in the butt I needed to post pictures of our flowers.

So bright and vivid!
I love nature, and being outdoors, and I must say it’s apparent if you were to visit our home.

All the pretty flowers…
Parts of our yard is heavily scented with flowers.

Nothing compares to fresh produce, the flavor is unbelievable!
We have a few fruit trees in our yard; pear, peach, mulberry, cherry, and apple. We also have one chestnut tree.

I love these flowers, simple but beautiful!
While taking the pictures, I couldn’t help but think how truly amazing our world is…

We received rain last evening, I thought the rain drops looked lovely.
God created an awesome world!
Louis Armstrong: What a Wonderful World

They’re lovely @curls and q, Some Datura’s are poisonous, so it’s definitely not an edible flower.
What a Wonderful World has always been one of my favorite songs. I was walking through DeMoss Hall (at the university I attended) when I heard of his death.
