Pink Saturday




You know what day this is? Time for the great Pink Saturday showing with Beverly at How Sweet the Sound. Come on along and you will see some really beautiful pink things.





I saw this beautiful Crepe Myrtle nestled among other trees in our neighborhood. I took this just before it started dropping the bright, pink blooms.

This is a garden flag that was in my yard. Of course, now I have it changed for the fall season.

Sending pink blessings to everyone.

I love crepe myrtle. We used to have one when I was a child so it is a special memory for me:-) I read your bio and look forward to "getting to know you" through your blog. You sound like an amazing woman! By the way, I'm going to check out the Secret Santa button.

Hi LV...The Crepe Myrtle here in Texas is blooming like crazy. That Pink is my favorite color of blooms, too. I browsed a bit on your blog, and enjoyed the cigar boxes. A small one was in an auction box along with a bunch of other estate items which I purchased for $5. The cigar box was filled with sewing stuff...what a find! Thanks for visiting CollectInTexas Gal today...Sue

Aren't Crepe Myrtle trees beautiful? I have a small one in my yard and it's a lovely small tree.
Cute flag too.

Lovely Pink Saturday post and sweet blog, too. Woke up to a dusting of snow on the ground so even thought this isn't Saturday I really needed a boost! Today you made me smile...

Sorry, I didn't get to see everyone yesterday. I had important business. My 11 year-old grandson was playing football and he wanted Mimi to go to the out-of-town-last-of-the-season-game. THEY WON AGAINST AN UNDEFEATED TEAM! WOO-HOO! 35 - 17☺

Hope the coming week blesses you with sunshine, happiness and good friends.
