Recent Garden Photos

Hello again!
I took some photos recently of the gardens. This time of year, the plants are pretty tired of showing off and look it. But, here and there you can see some plants still fully charged.


Hard to believe the snow covers the sundial during the winter.

Here's a new addition to the backyard. Needless to say I try to stay away!

This plant poking between the hydrangeas is a pumpkin we didn't intend to grow. All of a sudden we noticed the huge beautiful leaves and decided to see if the plant would actually be fertile. In fact it was and there is a healthy pumpkin now growing under the umbrella of leaves!

Thank you for stopping by. Please come again.

Well It's been 1 Year And

and 24 hours since my husband's epic day of seizures.

Finally, I feel a little bit of the heat turned off. Wish I could feel like it's all over, but at least I can say we've never gotten this far and will definitely go longer.

Congrats hubby. It's been many years. I am so psyched for you; you've been through a lot.

My Windowboxes

Hello again!
It as beautiful looking out the windows from the inside as it is to look at them from the outside. The flowers have grown so much.

In The Mail!

Hello again!
My daughters had another really wonderful time with their family on the lake in Naples, ME. Their aunts, uncle and grandmother really tried to give them a memorable week and as a thank you, I created 3 scrapbooks for each and sent them out in the mail. The books should be arriving hopefully today.

Thank you for stopping by. Please come again.

Refinished Green Mirror

Daughter's birthday is coming up soon and she's at the tween age. Time to give her an updated room.

She wants EvErYtHiNg green. Just refinished a mirror in Spring Green (she chose the color).

Will be antiquing for other furniture pieces and refinishing them in green. (She has a twin 4 post pineapple bed which is in great antique shape and matches her sister's twin bed. That'll stay the same.) May not have it all done in time, but she'll have a green room soon enough.
