Stormy Day

It was a beautiful  beautiful morning though. Then they stated talking about tornadoes and after seeing my neighbors homes destroyed two weeks ago - that is one word that I never want to hear again! So, I decided to go out and get my chores finished so I would not have to worry about the animals. Next I  moved onto planting some flower seeds and then found a new pot for the little passion plant that I found the other day. I dearly love these little running vines -but have a hard time when it comes to taking them through the winter, so I will just enjoy it while I have it . Next I decided to take a couple of pictures while I had a chance.

This little tulip must have been playing hide and go seek with me.  I totally adore these little fringed tulips and these are SPLASHED with color and it makes me think of the artist who really painted them! :)

Around the curve of the pond and this is my First iris to bloom this year. I love these guys because they were one of my Mama's favorites.

Do you remember me telling you the other day that this yellow rose would fill out a whole lot more! I totally LOVE this wonderful creation - probably as much as my DH hates it. AAAAAAAAAHHHHH - such is the joy of  married life!!!!!!!!!  I thought he would really like for me to have this one because It had NO thorns!


And last but definitely not Least - ta da!
Well, we are having lots of thunder -so I am heading to the house  -hoping to sew-will have to put up the 3 loads of laundry on my bed and of course DH will be starved. Always something to do and it seems that I am always running out of time.

Love to all!!!!!!!!!!! :)

  1. I have never heard of fringed tulips. All your plants are beautiful but those are gorgeous. I will have to check on those. I just had to write you and tell you that your snake stories were much better than mine. I would have been scared to death. Sweet Hunter doesn't think I will kill that snake but I will take pics to prove it when I do. Of course, if it is anything like deer hunting I will probably not ever see it again which is fine with me too! Loved hearing your stories!!! Made me smile on a day when I am not feeling too good.
