Tulips are blooming in our yard...and Maisie got her stitches out Saturday! Things are good!

I'm taking a bit more time away from my blog...but will be back soon! xox

My Mother's Garden...

"In search of my mother's garden, I found my own." ~ Alice Walker

Hope you're all having a beautiful Mother's Day!

Rose for you

Now don't faint...but I actully GREW this rose! For those of you who don't know me...I have a rather blue thumb. I can't seem to grow many things very well...but I can grow some decent roses . I probably have it in my blood because my dad had the most beautiful rose garden at our house in California. He had at least 25 rose bushes that he cared for...and the sweetest part is that he usually gave them away to people in the neighborhood because they loved them so much. Now mind you...I only have two rose bushes going at the moment but I do plan to have more in the future. They remind me of my dad so I like to have them around. My dad still grows them too...and he hasn't lost his touch. They will always be one of my favorite flowers.
