Window on my World

Liz, a cyber-pal, from SHS posted a blog challenge...what is the view from your window? I have to say that I don't think there are any bad views from any windows in our home. We are blessed to live in a rural area with lots of fields and woods. I will admit that Liz's window is much prettier than mine. I love all her stained glass. You can check it out on her blog.

I've decided to post three views.

The first is from our kitchen sink window. Now, I do not like to spend much time here. All the kids know how to put their dishes in the dishwasher, so that only leaves the pots and pans and Brian will often do those. As you can see, the kids have been blessing me with glasses full of wildflowers this week. This window looks out into the backyard toward the pool.

The second window is probably the view I see the most, at least to see and enjoy. This is the window right by my computer. Whenever I am sitting here, I have a few leisure moments to enjoy the view, watch the birds and listen to the sounds of nature. (I think I need to fill my birdfeeders!) Or, watch the snow, still watch the birds and lament our long, gray winters, but I don't like to think about that while the trees are green and weather warm.

The third window, well actually our front door, is toward the road and the field beyond. This is the view I get when I'm sitting in my chair reading or stitching. I don't actually look out this door, but it was hard to get a picture through the window by my chair.

I love all our views, each one has a different feel to it, but all of them are country. When we finish our family room, the main view will be toward the kid's play area and my perennial gardens, but right now I have to make an effort to look that way. I am very much looking forward to that view.
