Exciting to be four (she’s growing up so fast)! A new bike – now, family bike rides! Some really great shots of your garden. Love the monarch, vine tendrils, corn stalk, hibiscus. You did a great job on your arrangement, too. Maybe you could join the Monday Vase meme (like you need one more thing on your plate – ha!). Well, I hope this makes it through. It is a pain fixing this problem!
Glad it’s fixed! Thanks for the comments!! For now I’ll enjoy your vases, but may try a few more before winter comes :)
Yay, glad to hear that… many thanks!
Baby obviously had a fantastic birthday and your garden is spectacular. Perfect for biking around and careening into as there is all of that lush vegetation to break the falls. You might have to come up with another name for babyzilla as she aint’ no baby no-more ;)
Can’t I just call her Babyzilla forever?! ;)
Yeah, but one day she might have something to say about it when she is about 20 ;)
Aw, happy birthday, Baby! I adore her cake!
By the way, have you run across the slow flowers challenge yet? Your bouquet made me think of it. I haven’t participated in a formal way, but I’ve really enjoyed seeing others’ creations. You have so many interesting plants in your gardens, it seems like a natural fit for you! http://www.debraprinzing.com/slowflowerschallenge/
Thanks! When my sister and I made those arrangements I was thinking, “Why haven’t I been doing this all summer?!” We could’ve had these huge beautiful arrangements in the house all the time! haha Thanks for sharing; I will check out the slow flowers thing!
