I love flowers in the Springtime...


Don't you just LOVE the Springtime and all the flowers bursting forth out of the not so long ago
frozen earth? I know I do!

This lilac bush is one that I photographed at the Hillsdale College Arboretum last week. I adore the
 color and daintiness of this strain. So many different colors of lilacs. I just can't get enough!


I added a postmark to this one


Have you ever seen this Columbine? Doesn't it really remind you of grandma's bonnet?
My bff gave me several starts of these and they are doing great.


Another one in a different color


My bff also gave me tons of these.
She said they are called Japanese Wind Flower...love them as they just dance in the wind!


Hubby and I walked back through the woods last week also
{he is still laid off so that gives us time to do things that we didn't have time for before}
The woods was just FILLED with Trillium! I adore these wildflowers as well.





This is a birdbath in one of my flower gardens. This one is in the front of the house.
I love to hear the trickling of water from my fountains.


I hope you had a great weekend and that blessings abound to each and every one of you
 in the week ahead.

I must get busy again...so many things to do and not enough hours, but I am
wearing myself out fast! I got a dilly of a sunburn yesterday, but it was well
worth it.
Happy Spring / Summer!!

  3. I love all the Springtime blooms as well and have most of what you shared blooming at my house. I love the triliums that grow wild in the forest that edges our property mixed in with ferns and bleeding heart...♥

    Enjoy!
