We  have been having so many days of rain we remained in the house, reading a book and eating cookies. But today we did not have rain and I scooted out to see what I can see. And the wonderful thing I saw is a Primrose. (more…)

Rain, Rain, Rain

Yesterday my husband and I travelled to  visit to our middle daughter, and her husband, for a  wonderful visit with our first daughter, and our two sons as well. It was quite a party. But then we got a surprise. (more…)

There is more Grape Hyacinth than I expected. You can see that the lovely Blue is wandering off the garden. It has been blooming for quite a while – and I know it will last for much more. (more…)

I am surprised, but somehow I brought different colors and shapes of these flowers.  These daffodils are in front of the house, but there are many more that have slightly different shades of other colors. I don’t know how that happened, but I enjoy all of them. (more…)

There has been a lot of rain, but in this bit of quiet, I can go outside to see how the garden is managing – and I see that there are daffodils that are actually blooming.  Along with those little blue scillas. (more…)

The first golden flowers appeared right next to our kitchen. The weather is so finicky that it was a surprise to get such a lovely thing right by our house.  But more was coming. (more…)

I want to tell you that this bird has been busy and singing on our porch. She has built quite a home, working for two weeks. (more…)

Hellebores are amazing!  I am always excited and waiting for the first flowers that arrive in our garden. (more…)

I woke up this morning and quickly went to the window to see if more snow had left us. Well – there was NO SNOW! and the water barrels that we had flew off and did some swimming. (more…)

I am so glad that the snow is  almost gone.  My neighbor’s tree is showing off that they will have beautiful dry trees! (more…)
