Bit Of This & That

 

Friday was Papa’s b-day  and he said thanks so much  to all for leaving him birthday wishes in the comments . We didn't do much just puttered and enjoyed  the weather even though it has been hot . I made him his favourite home made cake  , vanilla blueberry . 

Today pretty much the same lol we are home bodies and enjoy our  home , gardens and nature that's around us very much .

These are photos  from around our yard I took the other day but never got around to posting them till now.

Oh your flowers are so beautiful. I am sure missing flowers as I really don't have much here in hot and dry Arizona. I'm going to check into the flowering cactus. In the meantime, I'm sure enjoying yours.
