Bloomin' Tuesday

This morning I wasn't sure I'd have time to take photos and post a Bloomin' Tuesday, but I'm glad I made the time. It gave me a moment or two to smell the roses -- literally. They were lovely. Heaven's to Betsy I've been busy lately! Seriously, I hardly know which way is up. I feel like my life has been hijacked by the wedding brigade. I think in a week or so things will calm down. I'm looking forward to greeting my long lost friend and sewing up a tote or two or three. The idea of sitting for a few hours, listening to the radio, and running some fabric through a machine is very appealing at the moment!

Today I took a few photos of some beauties that have appeared within the last couple of weeks. First we have a few shots of our clematis -- I love its purpley goodness...

Our cherries are ripening. I can usually count on making a cherry cobbler around the 4th of July, but they are a little late this year. I hope I can pick a bundle of them before the all the birds in the state of Colorado snarf them up. They are greedy little things, and after a week of plundering this tree they are each as fat as a beached whale. It's hard to blame them too much though when you take a look at these ripening beauties... yum.

My thanks to Jean who makes Bloomin' Tuesday possible. Mosey on over to her house to see what's blooming in her yard and other yards around the country today!
