Flowers blooming in my yard




This Trillium, is in our yard because a friend planted it here! In fact, we have three! Sadly, our woods doesn't have any trillium's. Well, maybe a few but not many like some woods. Our friend, Julie, bought these plants to plant in her boyfriend's yard. Then they broke up! So she planted them in our yard! We were gone...when we came home we found a note telling us where they were planted! It was nice for us but sad for her. Since they don't multiply or spread I need to buy some more to plant.

These are apple blossoms in our flowering crabb tree. The tree that the ruffed grouse ate from on snowy days and that we discovered Eastern Bluebirds eating from for a week early in the spring! Sadly, the tree doesn't have very many flowers on it this year. I don't know what the birds will do next spring.
Pretty little violets. So tiny and delicate and pretty. Thank You, Lord, for the beautiful flowers of spring! Only a God of Love could and would create such beauty.
