The Buttterfly's

Are very busy as can be!

 Getting the sweet juice from the  last of the flowers

 My petunias

 don't want to give up.

Lovely Day Today

Things in the flower  garden are moving in to their

last hurrah. The Fall plants are slowly coming in.

It is so nice and cool in the mornings now, sure 

like this time of the year.

Thanks Racheld

You just got to love the advise Racheld over at Lawn Tea  

gave me to tell  the Bennie about his new girlfriends.

"You should, break it to him gently that those ladies

are ALWAYS so stiff and formal they are NO FUN

at all to hang out with and are absolutely wooden

on the dance floor." 

LOL!

I am about to get the binding done , ready to sew it on.

Anna has been a sweetheart encouraging me to get it 

done. She took it in hand and did the quilting.

The Bennie Went Shopping

found two new girlfriends .

Renew

The wings of HOPE carry us soaring high above 

the driving winds of life.

Ana Jacob

Those who hope in the Lord will renew their strength.

They will soar on wings like eagles; they will run

and not grow weary, they will walk and not be faint.

Isa. 40:31

Now And The Past

Fall is on it's way

 First the acorns, I have been sweeping them off the walk and porch

for days, so many.

Now the leaves have started, the trees have not changed

color yet, must be to dry not any rain for weeks.

 I found a wild morning glory on the fence 

The gardener will not like this on his fence.

 These were some of my mornings glory's

from the past

So cheerful to look out in the morning and see them.

Can You Name This?

We have a strange growth in our yard.

 A big mushroom that I have not seen before,

nice yellow color in side.

It's mate. They are under a Crape Myrtle Tree .
We have no squirrels here, wonder if they would eat it.

Our Water Aerobics

Class had a pancake breakfast , I made Sausage Pinwheels.

Just some of our class, we invite office staff and anyone

that would like to come.  

Wordless Wednesday

Computer Has Been Down

So this is what we had Friday at coffee :

 Our News Channel 3TV Weather Man, Tim Simpson came and sang

for us.   That night on TV he showed a photo of us and told them who

we are. In case you don't know who we are --We live in a gated community

for the  Independent living. That the Bellevue Church owns.

 he sings in the church choir At Bellevue Baptist

We sing Happy Birthday to this sweet lady Helen,

it was her 91st . Her daughter came from Colorado

to celebrate with her. 

You are not old until you are 90 here. The oldest is 98.

Luncheon

Speaker was John Picarello, Retired NYC Firefighter

A First Responder to the Twin Towers 2001

He shared his miraculous story of survival.

John Picarello on the left

 It was fascinating, if you saw it that day on TV

you knew just what it looked like as he talked.

So Sad!

 

This is Anna, Her Granddaughter was there.

She wanted to hear this to know  just how her

 granddaughter survived. This awful tragedy. 

Hope

Be strong and take Heart all you who Hope in the Lord.

Ps. 31:24

Hope fills the afflicted soul with such inward joy and consolation,

that it can laugh while tears are in the eye, sigh and sing all in a 

breath.

Deep Blue Skies

The flowers are changing as we approach fall

 You may say this has reached its  fluffiness

 Surprise lily 

These grew very tall 

You can see the change more then feel it, still to hot.

Happy Saturday

The Fair Is Always Fun

Wordless Wednesday

Lovely Day

Not to Hot and Not To cool

Just right.

Seek Him

The 

Lord 

is good

to those whose

HOPE

is in Him,

to the one who 

seeks Him

Lam. 3:25

 

 God always gives His best to those who leave the

choice with Him.

Jim Elliot

The Gardener

is still hard at work

 We went from this to

 this on the Hibiscus. He has worked so hard he will need a labor day rest.

Hope you can see the red leaves on this Maple Tree.

A sure sign of fall in the air.

Hope it cooled off for you too!
Have a safe and fun  Labor Day week-end

Froggy, Froggy, Goosy, Goosy

 People put strange

 things in their flower beds.

And on their porch , but that is what makes it fun.
