Some of the beautiful birds in our garden.

GREETINGS FROM SOUTH AFRICA!

Summer is such a beautiful time of the year in our city. After the heavy rains in Johannesburg, the foliage in our neighbourhood is green and lush. Hundreds of different birds invade the various gardens. Their variety is mesmerizing. A simple little bird feeder provides endless entertainment.

I invite you to grab a 'cuppa' with me, sit on my patio and take in God's amazing creation.

GREETINGS FROM SOUTH AFRICA!

(and a belated 'Happy New Year')

Hello there to all my blogging friends around the world

It's been a while since I put up a blog post. (sigh) Life has been busy in this part of the world and with the ease of Facebook and other social media, I must admit that I have greatly neglected this blog. 

Anyway, I hope that 2015 will be a blessed and fulfilling year for you all.

I thought I'd share some pictures of TOBY and LEXI having some summer-fun. We've had wonderful weather here in Johannesburg and the family often spend time outside.  The dogs love our company...especially when we play their favourite game:

 "Ball retrieving from the swimming pool."

 Enjoy the pictures!
