These are flowers from Mom and Dad’s backyard….after storm “one”. The top photograph was the storm that tore through last night. Can we be done now please? I don’t want to spend another night watching radar!
One of Mom and Dad’s faithful friends returned. Feeding them twice a day doesn’t hurt either!
To the many of you who dropped by a couple of days ago to wish my mom a Happy Birthday ….thank you so much! She enjoyed and appreciated every note and kind word. Be safe…..and be nice to people ♥
stuff i tell my sister 
I have enjoyed following your blog!! You have a wonderful way of embracing the abundance of life!
I appreciate you ~ thanks so much ♥
It’s June…it’s June..it’s June..I have, for months, being saying, “I can’t wait for it to be June” for so many reasons…and it’s finally here! Welcome back June! xoxo
Happy DANCE! ♥
I envy you the flowers but not the tornadoes.
Tornadoes are simply wicked. ;(
I thought it was March that was supposed to come in like a lion and go out like a lamb. May and June are continuing to roar!
BTW, I love the dove shot and the way you edited it!
😉 It is Oklahoma….”No Rules” 😉
You’ve got that right Okie Sista!
♥
The flowers are breathtaking, hurricane season starts today for us and I am hoping Mother Nature hears you
Awww…..I was just talking to my SIL that lives in FL. She said the same thing….hurricane season. Praying it doesn’t rear it’s ugly head!
What have you done to deserve the tornadoes.?? another one… God please place a protecting hand over all these people… and everything you wish for in June, I wish for you as well may you get it all… stay safe.. Mom and Dad as well…
In all my Oklahoma years….I think last night had to be the craziest….so many tornadoes spawning from every direction. And then the flood waters. Thank you for your sweet prayers. The sun is shining today and we are thankful!
And all the people said….AMEN!
♥
You have a busy month ahead of you … very exciting and fun. Love the dove photo. And enjoy June and let it delight you.
I am so ready!!! ♥
My mother is impressed by the fact that I can now spot a debris ball on radar. Heck, I’ve impressed myself. Oklahoma is growing on me.
A lot of new terminology that becomes 2nd nature quickly. Wall cloud, lift, hook echo, fraidy hole, rain wrapped……and on and on and on. 😉
Thought about you last night as the weather channel reported the break out of tornados in Oklahoma. That’s enough, now, don’t you think?
Oh yes. UNCLE!
Wishing all of us quiet days ahead. Sunshine and blue skies. Fraidy hole made me giggle, I haven’t heard of that one.
hehe….it’s what my grandpa always called it! 😉
How exhausting and fearful that would be to just be waiting for all those storms to past. I’m so glad you can be with your parents it must be a big comfort for them. Stay safe, I’m hoping that sunny days are around the corner.
Sunshine today and it was awesome! Thank you♥
So glad that your parent’s garden made it through.
Well….it made it thru the first one…..they had a 2nd tornado Friday nite…..I’ll have to get back with you on that one. ;(
That weather the other night gave new meaning to “the winds come sweeping down the plain.” As always, wonderful pictures, wonderful sentiments!
I’m thinking we need to come up with a calmer song for our state!!! Let’s work on that one 😉 Thanks for your support, Maddie. I appreciate you ♥
How wonderful to see that the birds returned! That’s a little sign of hope, I think. oxo
They definitely brought some peace ♥
I am just amazed at the resilience of you folks in Oklahoma. Do you ever go to bed and feel safe during Tornado season? Bless your little troubled hearts. I hope your parents are okay after the second onslaught on Moore.
The damage is a mess, Delores. Will sure be glad when things let up and folks can begin repairs and rebuilding. We do know when to expect storms….so once they pass …. we are good to sleep. (of course, I wait until they’ve passed thru our Missouri kids, too! that made Friday nite end on Sat morning! but all was well for them.) ♥
Hello, I hope you, your sister, and your parents, your entire family and community are all right, tired and stressed maybe but safe and intact.
We are all safe. Just a lot of repairs to take place in the upcoming weeks. Thank you ♥
So say we all… may you have clear skies for the rest of the summer…
thank you….after today hopefully….another stormy one ~
Sorry to hear that… hope everything (and everyone) is okay…
a day without a tornado is a very good day! 😉
