Lo, I've got Roses E'er Blooming!

I know, it's not Advent yet, but still this is pretty neat.

I was walking back from the church, where I was trying to take pictures of the stained glass windows while they're being backlit by the sun. While walking back, I took these shots of our Blessed Mother garden. Here we are in the middle of November, and I've got rosebuds ready to pop and an Easter Lily about to bloom.

Also, I realized that I'm not going to get the sharp pictures I want with my digital camera, but here are a few of the better pics I took of the stained glass.
