Serene Scenery Sunday

Woo, everypup and everycat!  It's me, Dave, here with Serene Scenery Sunday.  There are a whole lot of things going on in our yard that make us feel serene, so I thought I'd share a bunch of it with you today.  Ready to take a look around?

Let's start with some sky shots! Here's the sunset from the 25th of March:

 

And here's the picture God painted for us on the 28th:

 

Doesn't that remind you of one of those old paintings? Only better! It was gorgeous! A couple nights later, we looked to the north and saw this:

 

Those kind of cloud formations don't mean good things! We were fine here, and hope all of our friends up in Nebraska were OK!!!

Me and Big Mean Kitty, sharing a serene moment!

We've got a bunch of stuff blooming now! Want to take a look? (Oh... and I just got to play with Big Mean laying down; I didn't get to play Fetch. Not yet! We had fun anyway!)

Two varieties of our lilacs are blooming. Here are some shots of the "Skidmore" Lilacs:

 

Aren't they beautiful?!?  We wish you could smell them; they're incredible!  

Speaking of things that smell wonderful, the Juddi Viburnum are also in bloom:

They have an incredible scent! We have a bunch of Texas Quince all over the gardens - here's an up-close and personal look at one:

   

I like that they're from Texas - like me! Another of our favorites is also in bloom - the Eskimo Viburnum!

 

Mom likes the white, white blooms and the dark glossy-green leaves. Me and Zim just like the name! The other Lilac in bloom right now is the Old Fashioned Lilac! It's a deeper color than the "Skidmore" variety!

 

I really wish you could smell all of these - the fragrance would put you into a very serene place, trust me!  But then ... so does spending time playing with Big Mean Kitty!

Have a great Sunday!

Luv,

Dave
