Here is What's Blooming Right Now!

This day lily opened up the other day. These lily's originally came from my mother-in-law. She dug them up from the side of the road, out in the country years ago. I had them at our first house and transplanted some to our house that we are in now seventeen years ago. They were in the back, right corner of our yard but I had to move them when we put a garden in there. They are now along the left side of the yard. Landon has also transplanted them to his area and along the side of the garage. They spread nicely and are easy to separate and transplant in the Spring and Fall. Some of my neighbors have them in their yards too and they originally came from my plants.They are so pretty in bloom!



The Rose of Sharon are just starting to open up too. We have two big bushes along the left side of the yard and some smaller ones. We did not plant these originally.....the birds did! We enjoy these as they bloom for quite a while unlike the day lily's. My brother-in-law took starts from these a couple of years ago to Charlotte, North Carolina. Interesting how these flowers travel around!

Sunflowers are Growing!

In the background of this picture you can see some of our sunflowers. My husband built little boxes at the bottom of five of the fence posts last year. You can only see three in this picture. They grew a little bit higher than the post last year and were just incredibly beautiful! It rained a little bit this morning so that should help. The doggies and I had to delay our walk until about 9:00 a.m. Also in the picture is Mo-Jo. He finally got the stick away from Jazzy.

Last night, the kitchen sink got backed up so my handy husband had to go downstairs and take the pipes apart and snake them out.......messy job! The sink is fixed now and the bathroom is pretty much done.....just a few minor things.

The Garden Has Grown!

I took this picture last night and you can see that my garden has grown! I need to do a little weeding some time this week as I didn't get to it over the weekend. I have some little peppers and tomatoes. It's very sunny and windy here today. I need to get down to the studio and do some jewelry designing soon!

Mo-Jo Pup with Mr. Raccoon

(¸.•´ (¸.•`¤~♥I was looking in some of my old albums again and ran into these two pictures of Mo-Jo when he was a puppy. He looks so cute in these pictures! I remember that he did this all by himself. Looks like he is using Mr. Raccoon for a pillow. We still have Mr. Raccoon and he has been through the wash many times since this pic and Jazzy likes to give him a chew or two from time to time. Mo-Jo doesn't play with him anymore. Mo-Jo only likes Frisbee and balls. He will play Frisbee or ball until you walk away. I wish you could see him jump, so graceful! Maybe I'll be able to catch it with my new camera. Well today was another hot one! I thing it got up to 86. It is supposed to get up to 88 tomorrow. Landon is out with friends playing Frisbee golf.



I listed these earrings today in my shop. They have my favorite colors.

Mine!

This is an old picture of Mo-Jo and Jazzy and I laugh every time I see it! Notice Mo'Jo's arm over his new buddy...."Mine"! And Jazzy's ears are up but leaning towards the center. We have had four shepherds now and we always called this "the bonnet stage". Mo-Jo is a little over a year and Jazzy is about three months old in this picture.

Very hot again today! I did take some pictures outside but I was a drippy mess by the time I came in! I have added a SEARCH THIS BLOG near the upper right hand corner of this blog to help find something fast!

I have also been working on a Facebook for myself and shop. It has been extremely frustrating trying to figure everything out but I am picking up tips here and there. I will continue to work on it here and there. There is a link to my Facebook down along the right hand side of this blog. And here are the links that I have:
