Pink Saturday Again!

Love joining Beverly at How Sweet The Sound for another Pink Saturday!  Displaying the little water pond Lilies again as two new Lilies came out at once!  I was so excited as it has only had one at a time before so this was a real treat!





I love this photo, it came out so well and vivid!  To see more pinks for Pink Saturday, go to http://howsweetthesound.typepad.com and add your own link if you would like to join in.
Happy pinks!
My heart to yours...

PINK SATURDAY POST

Celebrating Pink Saturday with Beverly at How sweet the Sound.
 This is my beautiful Water Lily in the ornamental pond in the back yard.  They are only open in the daytime and close at night.  I love them so much.


 This is my flower/veggie garden by the shed.  There are tomato and Banana Pepper plants tucked in among the Coleus and other plants.
This a is beautiful vine that I cannot remember the name of.  It climbs a trellis in the back of the house and was a gift from a friend last year.  I wintered it in the shed and it grew so quickly again once I put it out of doors!

The blooms are so large and beautiful, a real bright spot in the yard.

The shed garden again.  The color of the Coleus is so vivid.  My hubby loved them and their are such low maintenance.  Just keep them well watered.  The green plant in the center is the Pepper plant and it has little peppers growing on it already.  I also have tomato plants in there and have already picked a ripe one.  It has been very hot and muggy here for weeks but it has been raining in the night so good for plants and lawn. Visit How sweet the sound for other beautiful entries for Pink Saturday and add your own!

LOVELY LILY PADS

OUR LITTLE WATER POND has one little Water Lily plant that is on its third summer now.  It winters even when the little pond freezes and brings forth a blossom or two now through the summer.  This is the first blossom this year captured by my hubby.  I just love the picture, it couldn't be more perfect!
Is this not beautiful?? 
And I took this one the day before.

The back yard was a flurry of birds this morning with Cardinals, Blue Jays, Warblers, Blue Birds and water fowl.  Canadian Geese were on the lake with their goslings and the only ones we have not seen today is the Mallard family.  But I am sure they will be coming to beg for a hand out!

Please Visit my Kerrie's Korner SC site for pictures of the birds and a baby Blue Jay who had a scary experience!!
MOTHER'S DAY was lovely!  Both my daughters and 2 of my Granddaughters were here to visit and it was just grand.  Here is a picture they took of us.

And here they are!

The boys were off to see Iron Man movie.  Except for Papa who was here with me of course.
I certainly hope you had a wonderful Mother's Day even if you are not a Mother.  Never forget the Mama's who do not have children near to celebrate and also the Mama's who are in nursing homes and never get a visit from a child.  There is always someone less fortunate than we are and we should reach out to these people.  Your visit may be the only tactile stimulation that they receive in a week's time or more.  Bless you for reaching out to others and you will be rewarded as God is sooooooo Good!
