Taking Time to Enjoy my Garden...

I love to bake, but today was one of those beautiful days in the 70s, sun shining and clear, so I took a walk around our home this afternoon to enjoy the blooms in my garden.  I have peonies that I have missed because of being away, first, with the tragic loss of our daughter Kelly and last week babysitting our granddaughter, Maddie.  One grouping of peony is actually from my grandmother's garden that I have transplanted in every home we've lived in the last 42 years.

I just needed to spend some time with nature and contemplate the beauty around me.  Enjoy!

Thank you for taking a walk with me; wasn't it peaceful!
