shovel and dirt

Last night I sure enjoyed shoveling
some dirt and daylilies, it sure doesn't take
much to make this simple country girl HaPpY
my five year old neighbor came over to help
makes my heart smile that little ones want to
help dig in the dirt and flowers.

Simple life.... simple joys.... may I always be thankful
for all the little things as well as the big things ...

 

Spring and Summer Look

I purchased this spring looking quilt back in early March
to put on our bed after I spring cleaned however my room never got spring
cleaned this year due to my fall
however I decided the other day with the help of My husband
spring cleaned or not I was putting this on our bed
I love the colors, the cheerfulness it brings

Simple Pleasure

I had been wanting a lamp to convert to a solar lamp for my little
country porch.
Its the simple things in life that bring great pleasure as I sit here in my white rocker
enjoying the night with a little wine I enjoyed this simple little brass pineapple
lamp...



Simple Pleasure for a Simple ole country gal
May you too enjoy the simple things in life

Treasures

This past weekend I went to the area I grew  up in
first it was just to visit family, then I received a call
to come visit a friend on Saturday at 10 am which I said
I would be there.
I was honored to  have been allowed to have some
items a sweet friend wanted me to have.
I will cherish these items and think of you often
my dear sweet friend, more than things or items  I cherish the friendship of
my neighbor/friend/ Brother and /sister in Christ

Feeling honored and blessed to have had some of
the most amazing neighbors and friends even after all
the years I have been moved to another state.

Joy

I am in the process of blogging about  the JOY of the Lord and how he has proved for me ... on the journey of my shattered wrist since april 14 2016

Simple pleasures Tuesday

Another beautiful warm sunny nothing but blue sky kind of day
Walking
Sitting in the sun

Simple pleasure 1

One of my greatest simple pleasures is to
Walk our track.
Walking alone allows me to pray, talk to God and listen for God's voice. 
At the end of each walk I have to stop and give thanks
To God for allowing me to walk, several years ago I stood on this track with a knee brace and
crutch asking GOD to allow me to walk the track again, weeks turned in to a month or more
one evening I decided that I would try with the cane  and brace to walk a little bit   each time I was able to add more laps I wore my brace most of that summer to walk and carried my cane.
God heard my cries and answered my prayers I stand at the end of the track each time I walk
Thanking GOD for this walk ..............

GOD hears his children's cries I just PRAISE GOD for his goodness to me this wandering child
of his.............

Sweet

I pointed out these beautiful  flowers growing along the lane to the little four old neighbor girl,

she said I will be back in a minute I got to run home

 

I hear this little girl ask if  they will  watch her run across then lane,

 she returns to me with this sweet little spring flower

how sweet ...thoughtful she knows my love for flowers

 

its the simple things in life ......................

Simple pleasure 2

This evening after yard work my little 4 year old Neighbor girl starting talking about Easter
I tell her I have some things and we can make her a easter tree .
She was so excited asking question after question about the eggs and tree and how the bunny might
fill those eggs (guess I will be filling some eggs Easter Morning)
When we finished she had to run in to her house and get her mom and granny to come out and
look at her Easter Tree.
Making a child smile is a simple thing that brings great pleasure to me ...............
