Distracted by Spring

As I work today, I find myself getting distracted by blooms.  I love spring, but hate the allergies that go with it.  I found these guys outside my front door.



I think they look good in  my little vintage bottle.








Sitting on my side table with the light streaming through the window.







Had to show you  a shot of my next door neighbors tree.



Okay, enough distractions.  I have quite a lot to get to.  See ya soon.

Your flowers are so beautiful in your cute vintage bottle!!..I took some pics this morning of some flowering trees in the neighborhood...and also noticed the start of the pollen...I use my garden hose twice a day during pollen season to keep the pollen on the porches at bay....

Love the flowers...hate the pollen!!..

Gorgeous flowers! Your neighbors have a gorgeous tree in their yard!

Beautiful little iris flowers. Your neighbor's saucer magnolia is gorgeous too. I will become totally distracted by the flower garden from now on. I am composing hanging baskets in the morning. hugs, olive

Terry said...

Gorgeous. I want a magnolia tree and your iris (irises?) look beautiful. Bring on the spring.

I too love Spring and all the flowers that begin to blossom. When I was born, my folks planted a magnolia tree in their front yard. There are pictures of me, and then me any my sister growing up with that tree. After my folks died, my middle daughter and her husband bought the house. Now I have pictures of my grandkids under the old magnolia tree! Thanks for reminding me of that memory.

Take care,
Sue

I do so love a tulip tree! It's such a romantic sight when the petals make it to the ground!

I've always wanted a tulip tree! But then, the simple little flowers in the simple bottle are just as beautiful. ~ Maureen

Unfortunately, the downside of all the beautiful blooms is the sniffling and sneezing we go through. It's worth it, though to have the gloomy old winter gone. :)
