Pretty Things.....

Today we tied up our boots and headed outside to do some yardwork. It was a gorgeous sunny day filled with all sorts of beautiful little treasures. Compliments to our Amazing and Almighty God who makes all things beautiful. We probably won't be having a White Christmas but I think you will agree the desert has a special beauty all of its own.

A pretty little Alpine Flower.

A pretty view of the valley. Everything is a beautiful shade of green from all the rain we have been having.

Pretty Yellow Goldfinch

Bright Red Loveliness

I think these flowers are making the goldfinches jealous!

The Rain has everything blooming!

Enjoying the warm sunshine...

Rolling in the dirt....

Rosemary and Rock gardens....

There are beautiful rocks all over our property so when ever we find one we add to our rock garden that sits by the Rosemary bush.

Dusty Dirty Boots means a hard days work and I will be sleeping well tonight!

Thanks for visiting with us and we hope you enjoyed looking at all these pretty things!
"Ah, Sovereign LORD, you have made the heavens and the earth by your great power and outstretched arm. Nothing is too hard for you."
Jeremiah 32:17

There are some in my family who would just love to live in the desert as there is so much more beauty there that first meets the eye! I would especially like the warmer winters!
Your place looks beautiful!
