I love your photos! I am putting them on my Pinterest board to use as background images for my agenda ppt in my 9th grade classroom. I am not allowed to use the scriptures, but I will tell the kiddos about your wonderful blog!
Robyn, I am so glad you are using the photos in your classroom. Blessings on your 9th grade classroom this year!
Ah, Pam ~ where do I begin this morning? Your photos are spectacular! The opening photo of the sunflowers and the garden is breathtaking. Precious Ella Mae in the rosemary – it is as tall as she is. The okra, was a favorite of my mom. She not only loved to eat it, she would let some grow really large, dry the pods and use them in her floral designs. I so enjoy it fried. And, there are no words for the rainbow and the glorious sunset. Thank you for this lovely treat, my talented and sweet friend. Wishing you and your dear family a most beautiful day!
Thank you sweet friend! Blessings on your Sunday!
Unbelievable beauty this morning and words of praise to accompany them. Ella Mae is growing up so and learning all aspects of gardening. How precious that Robyn is using your images in her classroom. Thank you for your faith and friendship.
Thank you sweet friend! Wishing you a joy-filled Sunday!
Pretty brilliant photos, Pam. Where is Mt Rainier?
Cath, it is in Washington State. Google it …it is spectacular!
WOW! double WOW! I could just linger for a long while the photos are spectacular, Pam! the verses are perfect too, thank you for sharing!
Have a blessed day.
Sue
Thank you Sue. Have a joy-filled Sunday!
For this southern soul the thought of the long winter to come here in Colorado makes me sad. But I got over it pretty quick upon seeing the rainbow and Miss Ella Mae.
Thank you Alice! Wishing you a joy-filled Sunday!
Beautiful! Mae – how sweet the sound and precious she is. I was touched by your recent comment of how you’re saving your Quimper collection for her, Pam.
Hoping to join the garden party again. With so much rain, the summer garden is thriving!
Thank you Rita, she will have the written story of how I received the Quimper. You are a lovely blogging friend!
That hummingbird moth photo is unbelievable! You must have had the patience of Job or the luck of the Irish to get that one. What a lovely way to begin my day!
Jeanie, we were sitting in the garden and it appeared. Butch got an amazing video of it! Happy Sunday!
Magnificent pictures!!!Thank you for this encouraging and happy post!Blessings to the princess and to you too!
Thank you Maristella! Wishing you a wonderful-filled week!
On a quiet Sunday morning I am on the porch enjoying the beauty of your post and feeling grateful.
Linda, I can imagine your porch on a quiet morning!
Aw!!! Little Mae is just precious! She must bring you so much joy, and oh, how she must love walking through your charming garden! The memories she makes with you there while growing up will last a lifetime. And, oh, your photos!! That first one looks just like a painting!!!! Well, all of them do really. You have blessed me greatly once again, sweet friend. So wonderful to visit with you on this Lord’s Day!
Thank you my friend! Wishing you a joy-filled week!
The photos are lovely and when we lived in Seattle…if we were able to see Mt Rainier…we knew it was going to be a good day. Every time I see a rainbow, of course I think of God’s promise to us but I also sing the little song :I can sing a rainbow”…just because I like to sing and sing about the rainbow. God bless you.
Today you give us spectacular images. The first of the sunflowers with that beautiful sky is simply wonderful. All are …
Every Sunday you invite us to see the grace of God showing the nature that your husband and you care with love and dedication.
I think taking care of nature is a very beautiful way to pray and give thanks.
Yes, I’m leaving on Tuesday because August 9 is my birthday and I do not want to be alone. I love to celebrate my birthday and I already have a good collection of years … hahaha, I love collecting them !!
Dolores
Pam, I always love your pictures, the scriptures and your sweet little girl.
Thank you Joanna!
Beautiful Sunday scriptures and photos. The first photo is absolutely gorgeous with the sunset or is it the sunrise?I love the rainbow also. I miss being out in the open so I can see them. We are closely surrounded by trees in our neighborhood. If you fly over our house you can only see a portion of it.
Ella Mae is growing quickly and is so adorable.
I look forward to your garden party tomorrow.
Good morning Bonnie. Thank you so much, it is a sunset. I may have the photo enlarged and framed.
Every Sunday you manage to surpass the photos from the week before! The hummingbird moth photo was incredible. Please try to get us the recipe for that peach upside cake….Yummy!!! Have a wonderful week, Pam.
Thank you Roxanne. Happy Monday!
Gorgeous photos!!! Thank you for sharing such wonderful images and messages.
Thank you Ann!
That first capture with the amazing sky behind your sunflowers is breathtaking! Such pretty captures of Gods loving beauty! Every week your captures just get more and more stunning. Thank you for the scriptures as well. My devotions with you are God given moments.
Ella Mae is growing in leaps and bounds! We adore watching her grow among the blooms.

Thank you my friend. I think I might enlarge the sunflower photo and frame it. Happy Tuesday!
That would bring you joy each time you passed it in your home!
So pretty Pam! We have so many bees in our garden, and I love them!! Thanks for sharing with SYC.
hugs,
Jann
Always a pleasure!
Love your photos Pam! And the scriptures with them. 😀
