Obedient Plant

It is actually Fall, but you wouldn't know it. The weather has been kinda crazy here in Ohio and my flowers are confused. Well, my obedient plant has finally bloomed after years of being planted and never coming up. It is funny because I totally forgot about it because it never came up and when I saw it.....it took me forever to figure out what it was (lol). Isn't it beautiful?

A Beautiful Sunset

This beautiful sunset was taken on my 6th wedding anniversary - Nov 14, 2009

A Few Random Pictures

I decided to post a few random pictures that I have taken over the past couple weeks. Sometimes once these pictures are uploaded.... it just doesn't do them justice. They are alot more crisp and clear before I upload them, but it still gives you the ability to enjoy them. Have fun looking!!

Summer Pics - 2009

Thought I would share some of my pictures with all of you. My MIL made this little finch feeder for me a couple years ago and I love it and so does the finches!

Aren't they so pretty? I love the bright yellow feathers!!
Here is my garden guy that I have in one of my flower beds. Isn't he cute?

I normally put bird seed in his box, but I have also lined it before and planted some flowers!

I love this close-up that I took of Mr. BumbleBee. He was flying from flower to flower on my Lamb's Ear and this was the best picture that I was able to get.
One of the many Shasta Daisies in my flower garden

Hope you all enjoyed the pictures! More to come soon.

A Very Special Flower

I love this dainty and beautiful colored flower. I noticed after I took the picture, uploaded it to my camera that it has a heart in the middle of the flower. Can you see it? It is a pretty special flower because right beside where it is planted is a memory stone for our baby that we lost back in 2004. A beautiful sign in such a pretty flower!

Wide Array of Colors

There are so many different flowers and so many different colors, but I always find myself leaning towards the pinks and purples. I guess they are some of my favorite colors. Here are some more of my flowers that are in bloom.

I don't normally have alot of annuals, but when I do, I tend to lean towards good old petunias. They are easy to grow and they come in a wide array of colors. Isn't this one so pretty?
Here is my cat mint that is in full bloom. I love this stuff!! If it blooms, then you cut it back and it will come right back. You don't need to worry about cutting it back and then having it come back next year...... it normally grows back rather quickly! You constantly have color and I like it because it is rather tall. Perfect for covering up those unsightly gas meters on the side of your home.
I just planted this lavender this year. It is right next to my cat mint, but like I have said several times "I love purple and they are both different shades". Isn't it pretty?
