A walk outside

Flowers have a way of changing my mood instantly, anytime I need a little pick me up I head outside where I get some fresh air and take it all in. Maybe I'm a little weird but I love to cut grass, pull weeds, and get my hands in the dirt. Because, after all that hard work the reward is a beautiful yard and flower beds. I am so lucky that this house already had tons of flowers and I just had to wait to see what would pop out. Next year my yard will look even nicer, I have plans for my trimmers and shovel. There is still a lot of work to be done before the outside of my house looks just right. In the meantime I enjoying this little lovely's and still waiting for a few more things to bloom.

My neighbor has a walnut tree and it's right next my side of the fence. She doesn't want them so I will have plenty for baking.

Spring time


Spring time is finally here I am so excited to finally be working in my flower beds. The best thing about buying a house that has had previous owners is that they have left behind flowers and plants. It's like a little surprise trying to figure out what is going to be blooming. I have been able to figure most of the plants and flowers out but some are still a mystery. I have several hostas and I have a couple of hydrangea's, roses, Gerber daisy, and Crape Myrtle trees and some pear trees except in North Carolina they are not really pear trees with fruit but they have the most beautiful flowers that only last a couple of weeks and then the leaves come out.

This is a funny picture of Brody carrying the Louie. Louie absolutely hates when Brody does this he growls the whole time.














The weather was so nice that Micky took Brody for his first ride on the four wheeler

they went around the block a few times and then he took him into some trails in the woods back in the subdivision. Brody loved it he kept saying "lets go a whittle bit longer".
