Thankful Thursday

Every Thursday I take the day to post about something I am thankful for. Today I am thankful that I live in North Carolina because spring here is so beautiful. Plants are popping up everywhere. Everything is so green and I think to myself, "What a wonderful world"! Many of the streets are lined with cherry trees which are in full bloom. In another few days the dogwood will be out, then the azaleas.
Today it looks like this.


Deb, Jeanne, and April have also posted for Thankful Thursday, so take a few minutes and visit them too.
What are you thankful for today?

  5. You are having a storybook spring down there, Rhondi - gorgeous. I smiled when I saw the fiddleheads in your collage of photos. When I was small those were a big treat in springtime - with a little butter and salt & pepper.

  7. I'm in NC too. Beautiful photos - it's been a cold spring here so far. Hopefully in a week or too it will stay warmer here.
    Beautiful quilts you make - it was a pleasure looking at them.

  9. It is a Wonderful World, and I am thankful I can hear that song when I visit you.
    You have certainly got some beautiful flowers to look at right now. We have no Spring bloom yet. Enjoy it, it is such a pretty time of the year.

  17. Oh wow, so beautiful. Our Azaleas are already gone. That is one thing about having four seasons that we miss in the south. You enjoy the colors of each season. Thanks for sharing the beautiful pictures.

  19. I've been seeing those cherry trees in blogs and I can't seem to get enough of them. I bet they look way more beautiful in person and smell real nice too.

    Your bunny arrangement on the previous post is lovely. The one with holes are indeed perfect for flowers, maybe a candle too? :-)
