Blessings on Easter!


Isaiah 53:3
He was despised and rejected by men, a man of sorrows, and familiar with suffering. Like one from whom men hide their faces he was despised, and we esteemed him not.   

Isaiah 53: 5  But he was pierced for our transgressions, he was crushed for our iniquities; the punishment that brought us peace was upon him, and by his wounds we are healed. 

Matthew 28: 6
He is NOT here, for He is RISEN as He said!

Hallelujah!

My Hubby Made It!

I asked by husband to make me a little fence for the side yard.  He got up one morning and had it made before I even got up.  He made the pickets.  I love it.


Everyone sees this as we live right across the street from the cluster mailboxes.


I had this little wheelbarrow.  I had to improvise for the pot...but hopefully the plant will fill in and you won't see that!


The rooster is from HobLob.  The carrot is for Easter.  My friend Kathy sent it to me a few years ago.  I would love one of those big plastic Easter eggs...but I will not pay $15.00 for one.



I had to add this picture.  On this side of the house I had all beautiful flowering bushes...2 gorgeous hybiscus.  I told you about the freeze.  This is what I have now.  Hopefully, they will grow big again.

If you look behind the fence there is a pail with flowers....that was a Bougainvilla...It died.  Now that is saying something, because they are hard to kill.....I haven't replaced it yet!

Hope you are having a great week.  I have to go for a CT scan tomorrow.  With all the health care changes, I can no longer go where I have for the past 5 years...so, I must go where they can't access my port.  I am NOT happy about it, but I have no choice.  I will talk to you all on Saturday!!

I am NOT a gardener...

like so many of you wonderful bloggers, but I do love flowers around my yard...  I thought I would give you a little tour.  It is spring in AZ....a very short season this year....because of the extremely cold winter....but I will enjoy it while I have them.  By Mother's Day, the flowers are gone....burnt up by the sun!




I had to show my Fairy Garden in a vintage oil pan....I just got the orange cactus from Home Depot...I Had to try it!


This plant took so long to get started, my husband kept asking if I wanted that weed pulled out.  It is supposed to attract butterflies and hummers....Nothing yet!


I just got this darling bench at an estate sale last week for $5.00.  It was worn out blue...I think it is soooo cute!


I know this rose is almost at it's end, but I wanted you to see the pink!  More are coming!

  My neighbor gave me this birdbath....I already had another, so I planted flowers in it!





This planter I got a couple weeks ago at an estate sale for 50 cents....now you know I had to buy it!


More of my roses....yellow this time, and tons of blooms almost ready to pop!



This is Bentley's favorite spot while I work on the flowers...he is a lazy bones!


I wish I was better at the flower stuff, but my mom had NO flowers outside.  However, I must get the love of it from my Grandma.  She had gorgeous rose bushes....with no drip systems either....she collected rainwater.

Next post I want to show you what my husband MADE for me on the side yard!!  See you then!
