Scavenger Hunt Sunday...

Hello and Happy Sunday to you all. 
I have had one of those weeks that were jammed pack
full of must dos.  And I ended up not feeling up to par and
canceling most of my schedule and sleeping the better part
of two days.  Heck, I barely got my postcard post up. 

I guess my body was telling me to slow down and take it
easy..  And that I did. And it worked.  I am feeling 
100% once again.  I really didn't get around to getting
my photos done for this week.  So sorry to say these
were all pulled from the Archives.
I only took one of the photos this week.
I won't tell if you don't!

So here we go... 



KISS
I did not take this photo. I am sure you figured that one out.
Since I am in the photo.  My daughter took this when we were in
Oregon.  I just love my hubby's expression here.




ASKEW 
I really had no idea what I was going to use for this prompt.
And then I remembered I had caught a few shots of this bird hanging
sideways from this flower.  He was doing his best to get the seeds out.




FRAGRANT
This is an old photo from a long time ago.
And some of you might remember me posting it. 
But I just love this photo and thought I would show it again.




SIMPLE
A photo of one simple flower that has lost it's pedals.





 PLANT
 We got a good down pour the other day.
I was in heaven..  And I am thinking our plants enjoyed
the rain just as much as I.. 




Thanks so much my sweet friends for stopping in.
I do hope you are enjoying your weekend.
Till next time..

Hugs~

Kiss - Oh you both look adorable in this shot.

Gina Kleinworth said...

I love your kiss & you know all that rain you had there, we had sunshine all day long. Not one drop. Can't believe it can be so different when we are so close- but it's incredible that it's the case.

Heather Rogers said...

Such great photos. Love the one of you and your hubby. Those Goldfinches love dried up seed heads...that is Iowa's state bird. :)

Hugs~

Lisa Gordon said...

Oh Linda, what a beautiful couple you are!!!
I absolutely LOVE that photograph. Kudos to your daughter for getting it.

All of these are wonderful, especially "Fragrant," but the first one is my definite favorite.

I'm glad you are feeling better, and I wish you a fantastic week ahead, dear friend.
