A pretty birthday bouquet from a friend at church, plopped into my rustic old watering can,
tempted me away from packing up for our move to take some photos.
(no texture)
As if it takes much to tempt me away from packing!
We've been in our current home for 16 years, so it's been a good long while
since I've had to do all work involved with selling a home, buying a home, or packing up a home.
Now I get to do all of the above.

I'm trying to keep my eye on the prize of making a new to us house into our home.

Meanwhile, a little photo shoot and some photo editing was a good distraction for a little while.

All the best with your move! Packing and unpacking are two of my least favorite things to do.
ReplyDeleteThank you so much! I can't wait until it's done!

Thank you for hosting!
DeleteGood luck with the move! These flowers are so pretty!
ReplyDeleteThank you, Tamar!
DeleteMy old water can looks just like that. Dents and all.
ReplyDeleteThat's what I love about the old watering can, the character!
DeleteHi Elizabeth! Happy Birthday to you! What beautiful flowers, and a perfect distraction for you too. There's just nothing like good friends...
ReplyDeleteGod bless your efforts as you organize and pack,
Ceil
Thank you so much, Ceil!
DeleteVery lovely! I like the idea of the flowers being in the watering can!
ReplyDeleteThank you so much!
DeleteLove that watering can! Moving is tough work, wishing the best!
ReplyDeleteKristy, I can't wait til we're all settled in to our new place!
DeleteAnd what lovely photos they are too. We have moved four times in our 13 years of marriage and I know how difficult it can be to do all of that.
ReplyDeleteWe did not move into this house until August 1st. I was not happy since I had to unpack quickly and find the school stuff so I could start school. Told my husband that once school starts, my unpacking is done, as I could not do both. I fell your pain, I really do.

Abrianna, in our early years of marriage we moved more often, but what a blessing it was to live in this home for 16 years! The moving on is bittersweet.
DeleteSimply lovely, Elizabeth. I have a watering can like that and it's fun to dress it up.
ReplyDeleteThank you, Dayle!
DeleteBeautiful flowers to be sure, great photography!!!
ReplyDeleteHope you will join us to party too!!
Thank you so much, Karren!
DeleteLove your photos. I'm praying for you, dear friend. My computer has been in the shop so I'm catching up a bit but the prayers have continued.

Oh no! I thought your computer was relatively new! Thank you so much for your prayers.
