He is near!

I hope all of you had a wonderful Spring Break and Easter!
 

I've been busy in my yard. Weeding mostly. :(

I had to before putting down fresh bark dust. But I'm now done. Yea! So guess what I'm doing this next weekend? Yep, even if it rains. Gotta love  bark dust though, makes everything look new again.

I did plant a lot of flowers in pots this year. Kinda went a little flower happy. But I couldn't pass up $5 flats at our local nursery. When does that happen? Like almost never! I choose purple and pink flowers. I will post some pictures soon. Do any of you Instagram? I do, find me? (Likely to post there first ;))

But I have to say I'm loving our pond this time of year. Our frogs are croaking like crazy. God's nature. But I'm not so sure our neighbors feel the same. ;) They are really loud.

I don't mind being alone with my thoughts when I'm working. But music seems to keep me going longer. Today I want to share a song that I've been playing over and over. A gentle reminder of how our Lord is always there for us even when we don't feel him. My prayer it touches you too.

 

 

Color of the year!

 Have you entertained the idea of adding Emerald Pantone's color of 2013 into your surroundings?

I like the idea of having a couple of pillows with the color

(can never have enough pillows, kinda my addiction along with lamps)

  
Would you paint a room this color? I would, it would be such a nice surprise. A happy room.

 

 How about some art?!

Adding it to your wardrobe would be a great idea. Pair of jeans?

Some fun shoes?

 A great dress. Simple but oh so pretty.
 


These socks look so comfy, I would want to slip into them after a day out and about.



I would choose any of these. Would you?

Happy St. Patrick's Day!

May God grant you always...A sunbeam to warm you, a moonbeam to charm you, a sheltering Angel so nothing can harm you. Laughter to cheer you. Faithful friends near you. And whenever you pray, Heaven to hear you.

(Irish Blessing)
