Miscellaneous Pictures!!

Good Monday Morning, Everyone!! I just wanted to share some pictures I've taken recently.
:-) This first one is of an absolutely gorgeous sunset that I captured last Wednesday evening when we were leaving church. It came out better than I thought it would. I was concerned
about it being too dark. Our church is on a small hill and it is the perfect spot to get sunset pictures!
This next pictures is of our neighbor's cows. *smile* They were all gathered around, standing in this pond of water underneath a tree. It had rained for like days and then it was so hot and humid on this day and as I was driving by I just had to stop and watch them enjoying the cool shade and water. BUT they apparently didn't LIKE me watching them, so they started leaving and I barely had time to get any of them IN the water! Snooty cows!!! *smile*
Below is a picture of my sweet potato vines which I planted with an asparagus fern. I just love them! They grow like crazy and are just beautiful!

This is a beautiful flowering hanging basket that I bought. I don't know what it is called but the flowers on it close up at night and then just burst out in bloom during the day. I love it!

Here's another view of it:
And lastly....here is a picture of Rocky waiting for Ed to bring him out a treat! And you can see the patriotic bunting that we put up on the porch railing. I have wanted bunting forever but didn't want to pay the price they were asking but I got a really great deal on these so I finally took the plunge and bought some. These were like two in a package for $24.95 and they are made of really durable fabric so they should last for a loooong time! *smile*

Love all the pics! I want to get some bunting eventually, but I think I'll wait until we get siding done and painting. (It may be awile!)

Thanks, Theresa! Yes, I do understand about wanting and needing to get so much done. First things first, hm? Hope you and your family are doing well! ((HUGS))

That sunset picture is beautiful! And that's funny about the self-conscious cows. I like the way the bunting looks -- I wonder if there is any left at the stores. It would be on clearance now!

Hi Barbara....I got the bunting at Walmart. They have one in a package for $24.99 and a package of two for the same price. Of course. they are smaller. In our Walmart, they were located one or two aisle behind the jewelry counter. I think this something that they have in stock all of the time, at least, they do at our Walmart.
