TT #34 - 13 Beautiful Sights

No header graphic this week, Blogger's blown a gasket...

1. Love shining in someone special's eye

2. My children

3. Green mountains

4. Sunset over the ocean

5. A steaming plate of pasta in cream sauce

6. Gourmet chocolate

7. Jerusalem at dusk - they don't call it Jerusalem of Gold for nothing

8. A newborn baby

9. Michaelangelo's David (which I am going to see in just 3 weeks!)

10. An audience that has been completely captivated by music

11. New England in the fall

12. The sumptiously rich clothing seen in Renaissance portraits

13. Waterfalls

What would make your list?

  11. You'll be pleased to hear both my kids were breastfed! Yeah baby! It's the only way to go. What a bond, wow.
    Anyhoo, your list rocks.
    I loved number eight.
    But number nine intrigues me too, would love to hear all about that when the time comes, okay?

  16. All beautiful sights -- but especially my kids. I never get tired of looking at them or hugging them. The other thing that always amazes me is the beauty of nature. Some things can just take your breath away.
    Great TT!!

  17. Great list of views. I've only seen #7 on televison adn #2 is my godchildren rather than my own, but beautiful all the same.

    I'd add:

    Sunlight through lush foliage,

    The smile and laugh of happy babies,

    Sleek concept cars, (what can I say, I'm eclectic)

    A storm over water after everyone is safe and sound.

  18. Great list. You know we were at the Louvre once and our friend was looking for something so we're following him all through the museum and he just kept saying "you'll see" finally we demanded to know what he was looking for - it was THEN that it dawned on him that David was NOT in the louvre. We could have killed him!

  19. I want to see Jerusalem at any time of day or night. One day I'll come see you.

    A cool list.

    ReplyDelete
  20. My greatest sights (besides a 'shoe sale' sign and 'free coffee') are my Boo FINALLY asleep and CLEAN WALLS. I am sure you understand the beauty of the latter in my household!

    I finally got around to passing on the award you gave me (thanks sweetie!!) and have tagged you for a meme *gaffaw*

    ReplyDelete
  21. I'm a huge fan of David and waterfalls...oh, and most things on that list.

    ReplyDelete
  22. Ahhh pasta with cream sauce . . . But I'm with you on the Renaissance clothing, I'm always in awe of painters who can capture the fabric.

    ReplyDelete
  23. I'll see you're Fall in New England and raise you Unconditional Pug Love Eyes. ;)

    BTW, I have some pictures of Fall in New England I took on Sunday posted on my blog, if you check back a few days.

  28. Those are great sights. I love pasta in cream sauce. New born babys; nothing like them. Some of your sights, I haven't seen, but the most of the ones I have, can take your breath away.

    ReplyDelete
  29. Great list. I love watching my children play with one another.

  30. I would definitely agree with you on "my children"--and also my adorable, beautiful, precious little grandson! He is truly a sight for sore eyes.

    Great list. :)

  31. What a fabulous list. I have such a thing for babies. If I had my way, I would just keep having one after another. As it is we've stopped at 3, but I just love being around the newborns of friends and family. They seem to have a light all of their own. Beautiful!
    My TT is up here is you fancy popping over for a read.

    ReplyDelete
  32. I don't know -- newborns always look pretty funny to me. Now week old babies are cute.

    Happy TT.

  33. Seeing an older couple walking, holding hands.

    Those are all some very beautiful sights! Sunsets at the beach and my children sleeping are my favorites.

    Robin, I'm so excited for you going on your adult only trip!! :)

    Happy Thursday!

  38. Sorry to post this here, but wanted to let you know that you were one of two brave souls who agreed to 'Pay it Forward'---I have no idea what I'm making for you guys, and it could take some time to figure that out, but once I have decided, I'll ask you for your address, ok?

    ReplyDelete
  39. Sounds good to me - that will give me plenty of time to figure out what on earth I can then make - my crafty skill (decorated cakes) doesn't travel all that well LOL.

    I'm looking forward to playing. This will be fun.
