Happy Spring Everyone!
I'm excited to revive the blog with a post to welcome spring 2015 & a giveaway. Two giveaways, as a matter of fact! You'll find the information for the giveaways at the bottom of the page. All participating blogs are listed at the bottom of the page.
A huge thank you goes out to Just Natalie for all her hard work at corralling participants, prizes, and the like. Let's all give her a hand for putting this hop together. She's pretty awesome!

Winter's long rest leads to spring promise - A fresh start for every living thing.
It's not for us to question why we are given the gift - it's what we do with it that matters.
My most favorite thing about Spring 2015 is second chances
My parents. Love, kindness, deliberateness, acceptance, forgiving & giving.

I like that…a promise of spring and second chances.
ReplyDeleteThank you, Jennifer. There's nothing like being given a second chance at 'it', whatever it might be. :)
DeleteI had forgotten the lovely dark soil along the Gulf...it is so different from here where it's red and clumpy.
ReplyDeleteThanks for the lovely pictorial of your springtime. ;)
Thanks for dropping in, Jane. It looks dark because there's a couple loads of compost added to it. ;) Normally, it's nutrient deficient, white sand. Not complaining though. It grows more field peas and sweet potatoes than any one family could ever eat. :)
DeleteLovely Pictures! Happy Spring!
ReplyDeleteThanks Tamy, you, Mad Author, you! Happy Spring to you and yours.
ReplyDeleteWonderful pictures! They truly capture the beauty of spring.
ReplyDeleteThank you, Lauri. I so wanted to include a canoe or kayak trip down Econfina, but couldn't find any of my photos.
DeleteBecause it gives new life and hope to what we thought was dead ., refreshing reviving our hope in all things
ReplyDeleteIt's life renewed
