Tulips


These are the pink tulips I've been taking pictures of the last week or so. They really are bright inside and such a surprise since one would expect delicate pink inside! Yesterday Sarah and I got some cleaning done in the garden while the sun was out. The news said we've had six weekends in a row that have been cool and wet. I sure was thankful for her help because my broken arm last summer really put a damper on my garden activities.

Verse for today

John 1:16
From the fullness of His grace we have all received one blessing after another.



Flowering almond, from April 28

Saturday, May 2, 2009

We had snow early Monday morning, so when I went out to leave for school, this is what I saw. My tulips were covered with snow, and it was April 25!


Later in the week I took this picture:


And today, the tulips are looking very pink and happy. With the cool weather we are having, they will last longer. It seems like we are either COLD or HOT and go from winter to summer in a day or two.


Of course, Sarah had to upload the pictures I took on her camera and file them for me, but I got them onto the blog. AFTER moving the codes I have them in the order I wanted them to be shown in. I don't get how the sequence I wanted wasn't what appeared in my first preview. But, I got it fixed!
