Blue Monday

Thanks to Sweet Sally at Smiling Sally's Blog we all get to participate in Blue Monday!

Today for Blue Monday I thought I would show a few blue things at my vacation home on the River in Parker, Arizona that I haven't showed before. We just got back yesterday from spending 8 days there and it was wonderful!

This is a really pretty china angel heart plate I have hanging on the wall that has blue in it. The plate was given to me as a gift from a friend when I had a brain tumor removed 16 years ago. She told me it was my guardian angel that was to watch over me during my surgery. It sure watched over me during those times and now I have it hanging in our vacation home to watch over all our friends and family as they play in the river.

I also love to collect old blue enamel ladles and spoons. Here are just a few. They had a huge tube float at the river where thousands of people participated in it. We just sat on our deck and watched all the drunk crazies go by. I snapped this picture of some of the floaters. Do you notice how blue their tubes and umbrellas are??

Bloomin' Tuesday

Today is Bloomin' Tuesday over at Ms Jean's Blog. I love to share what I have growing in my garden every Tuesday.

Some of my Hydrangeas are starting to bloom.


Last November, I posted how to cut a stick from a Hydrangea plant and stick it in the ground to make another plant. This is the stick that I used in that post. Only 5 1/2 months ago and look how pretty the plant is already with a huge pink bloom! I love Lobella with its very pretty blue color. I have one area that I have big rocks, and every year the Lobella come back by the seeds it drops from the previous year. The area is shaded in the afternoon under a tree.

I have an area just dedicated to my giant Shasta Daisies. They come back year after year.
This rose is called Show Biz. I have 9 of them as rose trees and they line one of my walkways in the yard. Their color is just stunning.
This plant is called Matiliya Poppy. The flowers are very big about 5 to 6" across and their pedals are paper thin and white in color with a huge orange center. The bush grows about 6 feet tall and it is covered with these pretty flowers.

The whole time I have been walking around my yard, Charlie the Turtle has been following me just hoping for some veggies. I am so glad he is out of hibernation. He makes such a sweet addition to the garden.

Blue Monday - Happy Memorial Day

Today is Blue Monday over at Smiling Sally's Blog.

How fitting today on Memorial Day that we all post pictures of the red, white and blue.Memorial Day seems to be the only time throughout the year that the whole nation is united in the gratitude to the men and women in the Armed Services.

This is a day to remember those who paid for our freedom

To remember those that still bear the pain of warTo mourn with those that have lost a loved one
I am truly grateful for the men and women in the Armed Services in the past, present and future. May God keep you and your families safe.
