Lady bugs are great!



I appreciate lady bugs because they eat aphids off my roses.



I like to check all my flowers for lady bugs. Especially in the springtime!
Do you see any lady bugs?

Here's one!
I'll have to catch this one!

Sun Shines Thru the Mist-

Te mec u la

Sometimes the valley fills with mist,
then the sun rises above it and shines thru it.
Every day, we awake to a new masterpiece in the sky.




"The sky is the daily bread of the eyes." -Ralph Waldo Emerson

"My heart leaps up when I behold

A rainbow in the sky" -William Wordsworth




"...The sure tie
Of thy Lord's hand, the object of His eye!
When I behold thee, though my light be dim
Distinct, and low, I can in thine see Him
Who looks upon thee from His glorious throne,
And minds the covenant between all and One."
-Henry Vaugn (rainbow)

A Morning of Fun in the SNOW!

A Cat Nap

This is Cleo, though he is called "Useless" by Dion. I think he earns his keep and can come in out of the rain, once in a while. We have no mice problems, or rats!!! And he also hunts gophers and occasionally catches them. (Though gophers are a huge challenge!) You've aleady met his friend 50/50, the neighbors cat, whom we love. Yep, he shares his friends, I think he's a great cat.

April -a Happy Busy Month

If you click on the picture, you will be able to read this invitation easier.


The next couple of weeks, Jehovah's Witnesses will be busy inviting their neighbors to reflect on what Jesus Christ did for mankind. You are invited to attend the Memorial of Jesus' death and hear an encouraging talk that will point to the Bible for answers to the above questions.

Last year 18 million people worldwide attended this special event. There are only 7 million Jehovah's Witnesses worldwide, so many of our neighbors joined us in this celebration.

Starting on a small island in the Pacific, on April 17, as the sun goes down, millions around the world will gather to observe the Memorial of Christ's death and remember the importance. As the sun sets here in the United States, you too can be part of this global observance. For more information, the following are addresses and phone numbers for your local Kingdom Hall:

1025 S. 24th Street
Mesa, Arizona 85204
480-926-1053

2240 S. 600 E
Salt Lake City, UT
801-487-9456

6850 Northcote Ave

701 Kedzie Ave
University Park, Il

On May 1st* a special talk will be given at all Kingdom Halls around the world, entitled:

"Bible principles- Can They Help Us To Cope With Today's Problems?"

You will be welcomed wherever you attend.

*Our Congregation is having our special talk on May 8th, because we have our visiting circuit overseer encouraging our congregation on May 1st.

Simple Pleasures- A Sunrise








I think I need to watch the sun come up more often.
It makes for a very pleasant breakfast.
Looks like we will have an overcast day today.
