Things we love!

It’s been such an emotional week and I think we have all prayed and counted our blessings these past few days.

My hubby put out our bird feeders this week and we have enjoyed all kinds of birds right in our courtyard.

Something new in the courtyard....

We love John Travolta and his family (our house here in Florida is near where he lives so I’m always hoping to see him some time! lol) Check out this video with J. T. and his precious daughter Ella Bleu. It will definitely lift your spirits!

I've put 2 ways to view! Hope one of them works for you!

Look at your wonderful birdies! Bluebirds? And Flickers? What is the yellow one? Oriole??
We really enjoy feeding and watching the birds too. I should spend a little more time trying to identify the various ones that come to feed.
I admire JT For being such a wonderful family man. So rare these days in Hollywood.

We have been feeding the birds too. Our cat loves to watch them :)
I saw John Travolta's new movie
over Christmas and loved it. Lucky you getting to live near him.

The Travoltas spend a lot of time in my state, but I never dream of seeing them...on an island...they fly in. Hope that you are able to see them in person one day.

The bird feeders will give you lots of fun watching your feathered friends.

Such colourful birds you have there Diane.
We took our grandson to see JT's movie last week...certainly gave us a great laugh when the pills got swapped around.

Very nice capture of your birds. Ours have been busy at the feeder too. The robins were all over the yard in force yesterday. They left their signature, throwing the mulch all over the sidewalk. LOL Hope you had a nice Sunday.
Hugs,

That was adorable. What a bright way to start an otherwise rainy day. Loved it.

How fun is that at 700am in the morning. Birds and John and Ella Bleu. Makes me want to go dance with my puppies, all day long...a very good day off indeed.

The birds are beautiful. We put out seed this week and so far have just attracted some little ones. Nothing exotic like yours.
It has been a heartbreaking week, I just can't imagine what it would be like to have to endure what the earthquake victims in Haiti are having to go through.

The video was cute. I have always liked John Travolta.

Have a great day
Iris

So nice of you to feed the birds. John is a wonderful family man who obviously loves his daughter very much. My heart still breaks for him over loosing his son. I hope you spot him soon! Have a wonderful week. Twyla

Happy@Home said...

You took some very nice photos of the birdies. We enjoy feeding and watching them too.
I hope you are lucky enough to see John Travolta in your area.

Hi,

Oh my goodness - you already have blue birds visiting with your new bird feeders. LOL - if you don't see John Travolta you always have the adorable blue birds to feed and watch.

Your new black and white out fit is adorable - the top is about as cute as you can get - it looks great with shorts and a skirt.

Blessings,
Erin

I love feeding the birds, watching them busying themselves! suzie xxx

Unknown said...

I should get a bird feeder as there are so many here at home.However, they like to perch on our main door grills and poop everywhere, not much to the delight of my hubby hehe :)

What wonderful photos of your feathered friends.

Love the video, but now I can't get the song out of my head. :-)
