Guest Heart Thursday #175


Welcome to Guest Heart Thursday -
A Place to Share YOUR Heart!


I am so sorry for missing Guest Heart Thursday last week ...
You see, I had a promise to keep to my darling nieces, Tiffi and Jena.

It involved a trip to the Oregon Coast Aquarium.
I was halfway there before I realized why I felt something was missing from my Thursday ... but I knew you would forgive for my very first "miss"!!!

We had a wonderful time at the Aquarium, and saw lots and lots of cool and unique stuff.


But our favorite time came afterward ...

When we got to walk down the beach.


And find hearts.


And more hearts.


And still more hearts!!!

Thank you Victoria, Tiffi and Jena ... for sharing your day. And your hearts.

As always - a huge thank you to all who STILL linked up with Guest Heart Thursday last week, even in my absence. I haven't been online since last week, but look forward to seeing the delightful and amazing hearts you found in your world!!!

If you haven't met the beautiful and gentle spirit of Tammie Lee, then you've never visited "Spirithelpers". Tammie Lee is an incredible artist, who paints with both a brush and a camera lens. Through her canvases, her photos, her words and her soul - she brings joy and peace to my world.

Thank you, Tammie Lee, for sharing your heart!


I'm not sure how I ended up over at Kathy's blog, "You'll Shoot Your Eye Out".
(I think it was one of Debbie's posts and I followed a link!)

Kathy posts random bits and pieces of her life, and also hosts a fun meme - "Song-ography" - which she calls "a fun mash-up of photography and song titles"! 

 Do you see the heart in this GORGEOUS ocean shot?


There - do you see it now???

Isn't it simply adorable?

Thank you, Kathy, for sharing your heart!

As always - a huge thank you to all who linked up with Guest Heart Thursday last week. I loved seeing the delightful and amazing hearts you found in your world!!!

Both Sides Now ...


I've looked at love from both sides now ...
From Give


And take ... yet still somehow ...


It's love's illusions I recall.


I really don't know love ...

At all.
(Joni Mitchell)

Have you checked out "You'll Shoot Your Eye Out"? - Kathy is hosting a fun "mash-up of photography and song" called ...
"Song-Ography" ...

This week's title is "Both Sides Now" by Joni Mitchell.
I can't wait to check out YOUR interpretation of this classic song!

Guest Heart Thursday #173


Welcome to Guest Heart Thursday -

When I found this tiny random heart on a search engine, I just had to share it - and Amber's blog, "Amber's Ambry". I so much enjoyed visiting - and especially enjoyed visiting her garden!

Thank you, Amber, for sharing your heart!


If you haven't visited Maria's "Connections to the World", you are missing out. Not only is her postcard blog fun, but Maria herself is a truly sweet person - a wonderful friend; and an inspiration to me!

Thank you, Maria, for sharing your heart!


 "My Random Hearts" caught my eye - of course - as I was surfing a bit the other day. When I visited, I fell in love with this blog, and it's author - "Flamboyant Wallflower". I hope to spend more time getting acquainted in the near future!

Thank you, Flamboyant Wallflower, for sharing your heart!


Susannah has been an inspiration to me for so long ... I love visiting her blog, "Wanderin' Weeta (With Waterfowl and Weeds)". When she came across this moth with a heart, I knew I had to share it. Because I see at least 4 hearts here! How many do YOU see???

Thank you, Susannah, for sharing your heart!


And I totally fell in love with this heart Tina posted on her blog, "Tina's PicStory". Tina is another amazing blogging friend, who has inspired me immensely!

Thank you, Tina, for sharing your heart!

Guest Heart Thursday #172


Welcome to Guest Heart Thursday -
A Place to Share YOUR Heart!
My apologies today ... I'm running late!


 I just love it when my friends find hearts in the posts of THEIR friends - which is what happened when Cheryl ("March to March") sent me a link to "L and L Photography" - who had posted this beautiful owl ... apparently dozing in the barn. I have a special place in my heart for barn owls ... with their cute little heart-shaped faces!

Thank you, L and L Photography, for sharing your heart!
Thank YOU, Cheryl, for sending me the link!


I love this elegant heart leaf that Gillena found ... and posted on her blog, "Lunch Break". The colors are stunning - and not only is the leaf itself heart-shaped, but I can see several more hearts within the structure of the leaf!!!

Thank you, Gillena, for sharing your heart!
I can't wait to see more of your blog.


There are hearts hidden in Beth's beautiful artwork ... as well as a story about this adorable owl's oh-so-very-blue eyes!

Check out "Beth's Artworx" to find out more!!!

Thank you, sissie, for sharing your heart!


When Sissie posted this amazing muddy heart on her blog, "Expect the Unexpected", I was in awe. What a perfect heart!

Thank you, again, sissie, for sharing your heart!


Not to be outdone, my little niece (whom I love to call "Honey Heart") found this beautiful heart of light ... which she likened to a "kiss from an angel" ... wow.
Thank you, dear "Honey Heart", for sharing YOUR heart ...
Thank you, Sissie, for inspiring and encouraging her to do so!
As always - a huge thank you to all who linked up with Guest Heart Thursday last week. I loved seeing the delightful and amazing hearts you found in your world!!!
