Visit to a Garden Center & More

Hello Blogging Friends! Well, it's just about time to celebrate Independence Day, I know a lot of people are already off on their 4th of July vacations.  I stay at home for the 4th,it's always too Hot & too Crowded for me . I prefer the Spring and the Fall.I think those times of the year are what an ideal summer 's weather would be . lol

 Here are my new First of the Month Pics , as always featuring my Kitchen Table & My Front Yard. Today my kitchen table is of course decorated for the 4th,  its's reminiscent of a southern July 4th picnic. I join Murrieta 365 for this photo challenge every month.

Summer Flowers

 Yep, I do live in an enchanted Forest.I  love my two vintage metal bounce chairs. This my July First of the Month pic. With it being 105 degrees  and all these trees , which use tremendous amounts of water , my yard quickly becomes like a desert .

Well, just as the temperature roars ,I am off to the Garden center to buy plants . I did not plan for the two to coincide . But I did see some wonderful flowers& things.


These wave petunias smell as good as they look.

An ocean of Zinnias.

I wish you a very 

 of July!

I will leave you with this wonderful verse from Romans 8:


"There is therefore no condemnation for those who are in Christ Jesus,For the the law of the Spirit of Life has set us free in Christ Jesus from the law of sin and death."


Now that is something to celebrate!

Weekend Pics

Hello Blogging Friends,

I hope your Monday is going well. :) Today I am starting out with My May , Months of the Year TP Album pics.Better late , than never. I am joining in with Sue of Rednesday Fame at Sue loves Cherries for this challenge . I personally choose the small recycled TP Album for my project because I love recycling for crafts.(The pages are actually flattened toilet paper rolls.)
