This morning I stopped at McDonald's for a tasty strawberry/banana smoothie, oh yum and oh so pink.
Saturday I bought roses and these beautiful berries at the Farmer's Market and they are still adorning our screened porch dining table, and yes, pink.
These beautiful PINK cone flowers look like they belong next to the blue birdbath (I added this to the blue collection of pots) This was my entry to Kim Klassen's Texture Tuesday using her new freebie texture, isn't it lovely? 
The soft pink of the daylily with raindrops. I linked this post to Lisa Gordon's Creative Exchange this week.
And ofcourse, the pink hydrangeas that are in full bloom now.
This morning Toby jumped in bed and snuggled right up to my face and I knew instantly that we were in for a storm....he is my weather man when it comes to storms. Sure enough, the winds began to blow and the rain was coming down in torrents. It lasted about 1/2 hour and when it was over I could see that that was one mighty storm that blew through here.
The sidewalks and streets were covered with leaves that had been torn off the trees.
At the end of the back entrance into our subdivision I found this tree just snapped right off at the base. It makes me so sad to see trees that are growing and green just snapped in two. So you can see by these few photos that it was a mighty wind that blew thru here this morning. We were blessed again with no damage to our house or property. The pretty vase of roses withstood all that wind and was still intact when the winds stopped. Hope you were storm-free.

Hiya Deanna,
ReplyDeleteVery catchy thumbnail, which led me here.
Lovely combination of blue and pink.
That was some storm: knocking down what looks like a sturdy tree.
Lovely photos! I especially like the cone flowers next to the blue birdbath - splendid! Glad you and your roses were unscathed by the wind.
ReplyDeleteJust lovely photo's! And a great blog too, I'm also a fan of pink, red, all colours ;)
ReplyDeleteI just adore your images. My favorite is the one with the blue bird bath. Yummy to my eyes.
ReplyDeleteSo glad you went unscathed from the storm. I always worry about my gardens, esp. when the peony's are in bloom.
