Lunch with peeps at Gondola Pizza House ~ from left: grandson Elijah, daughter Kelly, grandson Knox, hubby Neil, granddaughter Shelby, and daughter Holly. Yummy pizza at probably the only place in town at lunch today that wasn’t swamped with TTU graduates and their families [although Gondola had several tables already reserved for large groups. Timing is everything.] Happy Saturday, everyone!

Day One Hundred Twenty Nine 2013

On a beautiful day like today, it would have been a crime not to spend at least a few minutes of it outside, so Neil and I headed to Dogwood Park to eat some lunch and bask in the sunshine.

It was one of those days that brings out the smiley face in everyone and everything.

There were dozens of people in the park, especially around the fountain, even though you can’t tell it from this picture. What a blessing to have such a beautiful place to just be in this town.

Grandson Elijah told me on the way home from school this afternoon that three girls told him he was the cutest boy in the class. He was very pleased with that information. Can’t say that I blame him.

We watched Elijah play T Ball this evening. Enjoyed the perfect weather and the honeysuckle-scented breeze that was blowing. We also enjoyed watching his team win, 24~6. Elijah hit a home run when the bases were loaded. He and his team played well.

After the game, Neil and I treated ourselves to a DQ milk shake and a Moolatte and decided we’d enjoy them even more while sitting in Dogwood Park and watching the fountain change colors. And we were right. Hope you had a happy Thursday.

Peonies are budding in my back yard.

Neighbor kitty Lily followed me around while I snapped some pics. She’s always on the go~a constant blur.

I wish we had more of these dark purple Irises. I really like that yellow stripe.

Peony bud looks like a swirly little planet. The flowers smell so good.

I have no idea what these are but I like them. They grow on a vine.

Azaleas are one of my faves, too. God sure knew what He was doing when He made flowers, didn’t He?

Day One Hundred Twenty Seven 2013

Flowers are restful to look at. They have neither emotions nor conflicts.

This is what’s left of the one and only bloom on our lilac bush. Pretty little purple petals dashed on the rocks. Bummer. I took this picture with my cell phone camera set on solari color. It’s a neat effect.
