Wow! I so appreciate all the nice things you said about my pillows. They were work but I am glad I finished them. I am enjoying them everyday on the couch! You would not believe our weather!!!! This morning's paper said that the only city in the entire country as warm as we were yesterday was Phoenix- we were hotter(87 degrees) than Miami, Las Vegas, or Houston!! It was record breaking for this area. I did not especially like it! First, I moved here because it is a cool place-temp wise. In addition, it is too early to be that hot. Thank goodness, a marine layer moved in today and the temps are more to my liking. I admit I'm strange, most people loved yesterday! It did bring out many flowers. Whatever the temperatures in your neck of the woods , I hope they are mild and pleasant!
May's Word Play. I am skipping June as I have the PS June already finished and framed.
These are delightful smelling flowers.
The crab apple ,"Golden Raindrops" came into full bloom in just two days!
As did the lilac!
I love this little iris. The colors are wonderful!
The wisteria also made it in about two days!
Thanks so much for joining me. I hope you all have a terrific week!
I love cool weather - I loved living in Alaska!
ReplyDeleteI am not complaining about the weather, Barb! It will return to normal soon enough, I'll bet :)
ReplyDeleteLovely finish too.
Barb - Everything is green and growing! The crabapple is glorious - such a lovely specimen tree - beautifully shaped. I sure like youre May Worldplay - it perfectly reflects what's going on in my world right now. Stay cool!

ReplyDeleteIt's also greening here. But the weather is not as I like it. Very changeable.
ReplyDeleteThe floweers look wonderful.

ReplyDeleteI giggled a bit that I live in Phoenix, and we consider this weather mild. All of those flowers coming into bloom are just beautiful!
ReplyDeleteYour flowers are beautiful. Our weather has been great! Not too cool, not too hot. We had the coolest thunderstorm last night too with dark skies rolling in, thunder, lighting and hail. I loved it. I love your cross stitch in bloom!
ReplyDeletei really must do the word plays one year. Love your wisteria, I always think it looks so romantic.
ReplyDeleteOh yes, mild and pleasant temperatures over here. I hope they'll stay like that.

ReplyDeleteMay Wordplay looks great all framed for the month!
ReplyDeleteWhat an interesting Iris. I don't think I've ever seen one like it before. Great frame for your Word Play!
ReplyDeleteI'm with you! I don't like the heat and sun, give me fog, rain, wind and cloud. Now THAT is a good day :)
ReplyDeleteLove the flowers. We still have nothing yet. But we are slowly getting there! The stitching is amazing! I just live for your stitching! ;)
Hope you are enjoying cooler weather today, Barb--I really can't take anything over 80 any more! Love your May Word Play all framed up--I hope to get to that one next year... Your flowers are all so pretty--our lilacs just bloomed this week, too :)
ReplyDeleteToday was absolutely beautiful - sunny and bright, blue sky and a little bit of a breeze. This is what I love - I hope it lasts through the month!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful photos
ReplyDeleteLove your May word play Barb!! I'm with you on liking slightly cooler temperatures. I think we'll be getting rain this next week, which will be good for the flowers. Love your flower photos. That iris is so beautiful. I haven't seen one like that before!
