Samuel Everette
a pretty little yellow flower shot with my new macro lens (This is the first pics with camera in 6 months or more)
The ants sure love this milk weed, the monarchs love it, must be really sweet tasting
this bumblebee had so much pollen on him/her blow up the pic and you can see the pollen dust on the thistle
another bumblebee
and yet another one it wasn't bothered with me having the lens 3" from him
Dad's headstone got replanted so they could engrave moms
Mom's part of the headstone finally got engraved a year later, it is so nice, mom would really be proud.
seems the bumble bee couldn't decide on the milk weed or the thistle
this cute little butterfly found the thistle. Those things have big, huge stickers and do not feel nice when they grab you, however I do not have the heart to cut them down since so many insects need them right now.
we can always find God's beauty any place we look if we just open our eyes and look around. What do you see through your camera lens?

Wonderful photos! Those two little boys are just adorable!! Are they identical twins? They sure are sweet. Great photos of the bumblebees and flowers, etc. LOVE them! And the headstones look so nice. (((hugs))) to you, dear friend.
ReplyDeleteP.S., did I ever tell you that our son Matthew's middle name is Everette, spelled with an "e" on end just like your Samuel's? Most people leave off the e, but I liked it there. Our Matthew used to ask me why we named him that. No one in our family had that name. I told him that I just liked the way it sounded with his first name of Matthew, which meant "Gift of God". And truly he was that. Now he is with God, but his sweet memory lingers on. Seeing your little Samuel Everette brought back a happy memory. Thank you.
ReplyDeletehi Sweet lady, Yes the babies are identical, thank you so much for the comments about the bees, flowers. we did have the conversation about your Matthew and Sammie wmiddle name being spelled alike :) The babies are growing properly I am hoping to get to see them this week, they sure do my heart good. Hope you have a great week. So glad that baby Sammie brought you happy memories
