Some beautiful things

It's been a little busy here lately, so I haven't posted in a bit.  But things are about to slow down, so I have time to share some of what's been keeping me busy.

But first, after a week of beautiful, temperate weather, the heat has finally hit Tennessee.  I took advantage of the beautiful days last week to take care of some gardening here at the home/house.

Late spring/early summer is always when the garden seems to be at its peak.  Here are a few pics from the yard:


Every flower is pink or purple in this part of my garden.
In the front of the house I always plant red, white and yellow flowers.


My dogs follow me in and out of the house all day.
'Til they fall asleep in the sun.


This is Shiloh requesting her daily walk.


The clematis is SO beautiful!!
I learned last year that they make long-lasting flowers when cut and put in a bud vase.


After a couple of hours of planting bulbs and annuals in flower pots, this is the Friday evening reward. 🙂

All of our neighbors have been commenting lately on how nice our yard looks, and how much they like it.  I guess we're doing something right.

I think creating a beautiful yard space is one of the most inexpensive ways to make yourself happy.  Really!

More to come soon...
