Lately I have been thinking a lot about two things that are very important to me. Two of my senses,the first one being sight and the second one being smell. Both of these things I treasure most dearly. Having the love of stitching and gardening it is important for me to retain these two things for as long as possible. Quite often I hear from older people that they can't smell roses or flowers. I just cannot imagine this happening to me. I know it will come sometime but in the meantime I am enjoying smelling the roses.
Today is also a special day at Kainga. Bonnie celebrates her Birthday today. Happy Birthday Bonnie and all the best for the coming year. Lots of adventures coming your way early next year. Enjoy them.
Please have a look at Melody's blog to see other Treasure's being showcased this week.
Happy days.

Happy Birthday Bonnie!
Great rose tunnel it will look stunning covered in roses!
I love your Rose Tunnel, how good it is to stop and smell the flowers. We all should protect our senses, and relax in a garden whenever possible. Birthday Greetings to Bonnie. Cheers R,
I just love your rose tunnel. Hope you get to "smell the roses" for a long time to come.
I love seeing what is happening in your garden. Your rose tunnel is very beautiful and very clever.

Hi Bev,
First, I want to send my birthday wishes to Bonne. May this be the best year ever for her. : )
Me too Bev, I am blessed to be able to have all my senses. Thanks for reminding me of that today, just feeling blue. I need be thankful and remember to be thankful for all the things the Lord has done for me and will continue to do. I have some lavender plants and I enjoy running my hands through them too. It's a great fragrance. Wishing you a beautiful and colorful day.
Blessings,
Bobbie Lynn

Happy Birthday to Bonnie. Your garden is beautiful Bev and I agree with you, smelling the flowers and nature is a precious treasure and we should do it as often as we can.
Excellent recycling of the cricket pitch ... gorgeous tunnel!
Gorgeous archway! I love looking through that tunnel of roses. Must be so amazing to have this in your yard.
I love your rose tunnel, it is gorgeous. What type of roses are they? Lavender is a wonderful thing to have in the garden, wish mine would self seed all over the place. Belated birthday wishes to Bonnie as well. Love seeing the photos of your garden. Enjoy the rest of your week.

Your rose tunnel is amazing, you have a beautiful garden. I agree, there is nothing nicer than 'taking time to smell the roses'.
