Around my gardens June 2012


Ice plant falling out of an old sink.........


The dark pink zinnias remind me of a full dress with a can-can under it!


My new garden art....a couple of mice.


Munch Munch Munch


Old pots I might need some day.  I threw all of my plastic ones away....ones like this only get better!


I let this critter go......well, I gave it a place to get big drinks of water....and it got away.  Climbed right up a slippery pan and GOT AWAY.  I am too nice sometimes.


Every once in a while, something curly happens to my flowers!


We've had lots and lots of rain this summer, so things are growing and blooming like it was early Spring!

Really?!? Lots and lots of rain? (We DID have more rain in one week then we'd had the previous 108 days....) It's been SO dry here.

Maybe the critter will return the favor and become a beautiful butterfly for your garden.

My Favorite Child

I wish I had all the pictures I wanted, to go with this blog post........because I know a *picture paints a thousand words*, but for a large part of our family's life, old fashion cameras and old fashion pictures were being used.  So, many of the pictures that would help paint this post are somewhere in boxes and books.  It would take a month of Sundays to find them all so  I will just have to count on your imagination and my memory! FAVORITE: most liked, preferred above all others Sara, you were my favorite.  You were our first baby and we were so excited for you.  Your hair was perfect for me to learn how to braid and you always were very still for me.  You were the first little girl I got to dress up and put lacy socks on.  You were such a fun little girl to read to.  You memorized the books we had and it was a big part of our day to read with each other.  *where is the bear when the wind blows cold?*.    You have always been interested in the *family tree*, dates, p
