Favorite Things Saturday

If you think you've read this before....you are right. It's not exactly the same post as before, but close.I wasn't really prepared for A Favorite Thing Saturday...and just went through my pictures and wrote this...after all it is one of my favorite things...worth another read. An oops from me this morning. 

 My favorite thing for today's post is the Grotto at St. Mary's Catholic Church in our town. It was built by my husband a couple of years ago.He sat in our breakfast nook...planning this on a piece of paper. Working later with an architect...this is what he came up with  This is the front view.

 Here it is from behind. The grasses and plants have really established themselves since the beginning. I helped with the planting and things came together so easily. Most things worked out as we planned. 

 There are seasonal plantings here...so something is blooming pretty much all through the spring and summer.From tulips in the spring to roses in the summer...and ending with the grasses and mums in the fall.

Joe built this in memory of his first wife and the pavers in front are stamped with both of our deceased family members. The other pavers are there for members of our Church to remember their family members too.It's a popular spot for meditation and prayer...first communion pictures as well as wedding pictures. A wonderful addition to our Church and the surrounding area.
