“The next day the large crowd that had come to the feast heard that Jesus was coming to Jerusalem.
So they took branches of palm trees and went out to meet him, crying out, “Hosanna! Blessed is he who comes in the name of the Lord, even the King of Israel!”
John 12:12-13
Pink dogwoods have been exceptionally beautiful this Spring!
The white features in this pic seem to stand out more than normal against such a clear blue sky !
This girl loves all things outdoors !
A good spot to find a deer in the winter, this ridge is home to a lot of wild azaleas that make the landscape take on a completely different look from only a few weeks ago.
We are finding a variety of colors but this is our favorite !
A reminder to reflect on God’s amazing creation !
Our “cherry blossomed” picnic table.
Some of our greens, radishes, and other fall plantings made it through the winter without becoming deer food !
These garden azaleas are simply gorgeous. The pale pink mingled with white is an attention grabber !
We are enjoying the dogwoods while they last. Some things come and go too quickly !
And like the blooms of Spring, days pass swiftly by also.
”Jesus Christ is the same yesterday and today and forever”.

That last picture of the azaleas remind me of the George Tabors that my mother had . They smell Devine. Miss Ella Mae is a fashionista , I love her outfit. Happy Sunday.
Thank you dear Alice. It is pouring rain here and we are under a tornado watch!
Oh, Pam, this post is glorious. The azaleas and the pink dogwoods are so beautiful. And precious Ella Mae in her darling outfit, she appears to be loaded with personality. And, the sunset, as always is gorgeous.
We are to have ugly storms today as well. Prayers that your area will not see a tornado. Wishing you and your family a safe and lovely day.
Thank you Sandra. EM has lots of personality, she never stops talking! I hope you escaped the bad weather!?
Pam, there is so much beauty in this post! The flowering trees, especially the dogwoods, are just gorgeous. But Ella Mae is the most gorgeous of all!
Thank you Patti ?
Beautiful pictures as always. Loved the church! Where is it located?
Thank you Beth. The church is in Rockmart, GA.
Lovely dogwoods. The pink is exquisite. Unfortunately there is a disease that has affected dogwoods for the last five years in our area that spreads and nothing really works. I had mine sprayed many times only to lose them later. I’m doing a post later this week with dogwood dishes.
Your azaleas are so pretty. It’s incredible how different our weather is. Our azaleas have been gone for weeks. We have a severe weather forecast this morning .Our church has Easter egg hunts all over the city this afternoon. I do hope they won’t have to be cancelled.
I love your native azaleas. So pretty. Last year I did bouquets with them from a lot down the street. It has been cleared recently so no native azaleas this year. We called them honeysuckle when I was growing up.
Beautiful scriptures. Happy Palm Sunday! Our children are marching into church this morning with palm branches.
Bonnie, that is terrible about the disease that has affected your dogwoods. I can’t wait to see your dogwood dishes. I hope you escaped bad weather!
This has been a gorgeous Spring in Alabama Pam! Thank you for the beautiful eye candy and I wish you a lovely Palm Sunday!
Jenna
Thank you Jenna and today has been gorgeous!
Pam, the beautiful pics are bursting with color, including the princess EM in her adorable outfit, adorned with a necklace, with the bountiful green backdrop. She is growing up so fast! It’s wonderful that she loves outside. The pink dogwood pics are outstanding! We’ve had several inches of continued rain since yesterday & a scattered frost warning tonight! Please stay safe in this weather! Clara ❤️??
Thank you dear Clara. It was 41 here this morning, but it has been a gorgeous day. ???
Pam I love your beautiful post, the gorgeous dogwoods,pink azaleas,the reflection of the clouds on the water and most of all the beautiful smile on Ella Mae’s face. Everything God makes is beautiful. Belated happy birthday to Butch. We share the same birthday. God Bless
Thank you so much! Amen, He is the master creator. Have a blessed Holy Week!
Stunning photos of your beautiful surroundings. I do hope that your area stays safe from the storms. Ella Mae is like eye candy, she looks adorable in that cute outfit.
Thank you Karen for your sweet comments! Happy Monday!
Hoping you are safe over in Alabama. It is noon here in S.C. and the storms are starting to fire up, but I made it home from church before it got bad. Praying for everyone’s safety today. Your pictures perfectly capture Spring bursting forth in the South. And Ella Mae in that outfit is about as cute as it gets! Hope Emma Kennedy is doing well and her parents are getting some sleep.
Good morning Roxanne. We had damage in our city, not widespread but we are safe. We have another round of bad weather coming on Thursday. I hope you escaped any damaging weather. I saw the outfit EM is wearing and I just had to buy it. EK is doing well, she is waking up every three hours at night which isn’t bad. Happy Monday❤️
What a beautiful verse to end with!
Your pictures are a breath of fresh air. Oh how I love them all but the Dogwoods always make my heart sing. We have two at the LakeHouse in Pennsylvania that my Mom and Dad planted 40+ years ago! When we head back soon… we always hope to see a few buds left on the tree.
Now our sweet little Ella Mae is just too darn cute. That outfit is adorable!
Happy Palm Sunday my friend!
Thank you Nancy. Dogwoods grow wild in our woods and they are so pretty right now. I saw the darling outfit my sweet EM has on and I just had to buy it for her! Have a wonderful week!
How could you have not bought that outfit for her! And wild dogwoods… sigh! ?
Dear friend, the beautiful nature that arises despite the good or bad weather, continues its journey because it has the mandate of God to make us happy.
As happy makes us see the image of Ella Mae with her fun dress / pants that highlights her beautiful face and is like another beautiful flower …
I emphasize the image of the small church. I fall in love with this type of construction, as well as with the images of flowers.
Tomorrow, Monday, I go to Granada to enjoy Holy Week with my grandchildren that I have not seen in 3 months … I promise photos!
Dolores
Queridos Dolores, gracias mi amigo! ¡Te deseo una Semana Santa llena de alegría y una feliz Pascua! Sé que disfrutarás de tus preciosos abuelos y familiares en Granada. Enviando abrazos ~ P.S. tan triste por Notre Dame, he estado allí dos veces.

Loving your photos, Pam. Cute pantaloons on Ella Mae.
Thank you Cath!
Thank you for this lovely post–never tire of seeing beautiful flowers. Little Ella Mae is precious and love her outfit! Hope you didn’t get that tornado. .
Thank you Bobbi, thankfully no tornado at our house. Have a blessed Holy Week!
Such an eye appealing post…including colorful Ella Mae in her altogether. Alas, TN heavy rains have dimmed our cherry blossoms and almost dissipated the dogwood blooms, but the sun is
pouring forth today…God is so good. All of No. 232 is beautiful and inspiring.
Thanks so much. Yes, God is so good!
The pink in those dogwoods is so vibrant and beautiful! And, little Ella Mae is just so adorable, as always. I love her little outfit. Just precious! Have a wonderful day, sweet friend. 🙂
Thank you dear Cheryl. God’s creation is so amazing and He is so good to allow us to enjoy!
No matter what day I see your Sunday posts, I feel glorious and full of peace and joy. And by the way, how many modeling agencies are after Ella Mae? She’s a natural!
You are so sweet Jeanie. Thank you!
Such a beautiful and inspiring post! Your post caught my eye so I featured you at Best of the Weekend this week. Have a great weekend!
