Nature Friday

 We are joining Rosy this week for Nature Friday~~

Spring is everywhere!  We are seeing our first tulips this year!
The Star Magnolias are in bloom~
White ones~
Pink ones~
This Weeping Cherry is in our backyard~
Today, it's been two years since Molly passed and I am wearing her tennis ball bandana in memory of her.   
Mom has never mentioned this on my blog before but Molly and Mitch passed on the very same day years apart but mom didn't realize it for a couple of days later for obvious reasons.   Mom misses her Airedales so much but Molly especially♥
Happy Friday!
Love ya lots♥
Duke

  1. No flowers here yet, but they will be coming soon. We miss Molly too, and it is pawsome to wear the bandana to honor her. Sadly, we always remember the birthdays and the last days but all of us are special in our own ways and deserve to be remembered. Give your mom extra loving today.

    The bandana is such a sweet way to remember Molly, and it’s touching to know she and Mitch share that special day.

  6. What a special way to remember a furry special 'DaleGirl!

    The temps are SO much better!

    Mom says when she had her other house - in that other *shudder* life, the tops of their windows were also decorated with ivy garlands -

  10. Hugs to your Mom, Duke, as she lovingly remembers Mitch and Molly.
    Your beautiful trees are further along than ours, though ours are just beginning. Sadly a late frost destroyed the blooms on our weeping cherry tree, so we'll just enjoy yours all the more. Our redbuds are slowly coming along, bt others in our area all all brightly pink!
