In MY PRETTY GARDEN

A few years earlier....

One day it is my dream to have a beautiful flower garden worthy of Better Homes and Garden pictures. Where I can be old and wear a huge sun hat and piddle around in it in the mornings and the evenings. I have always had a bit of a gardening bug in my blood!

BUT until that kind of time is realistic in my life, I am satisfied with trying my hand at it a little bit here and there.

This year I planted some morning glories and I forgot the other flower name from seeds and enjoyed watching the fruits of my labors

I also took a mum plant I got as a Thank You from Coltons' teacher and gave it a nice home by the other flowers. As they have bloomed and grown I have enjoyed a little bit of color in my corner of the Arizona desert.
(This is what they look like even in the cold- taken this week!)

I also re-painted this bench and was in the process of adding a handprint stone walk way of all the kids to the bench, until the before named kids broke most of them! aargh!

A few years ago I also planted some Irises (at the top) around the yard and have enjoyed watching them as an ever growing beautiful spring border each spring....
