My Babies are Blooming!

OK, that may sound a little off to you, however…

Take a peek at what I call my “babies”!

These truly are babies – ok…miniatures…they were a part of a basket from my Dad’s funeral.  And on the off-chance that they’d grow outside, I plopped them in the dirt gently planted them.

Here’s one more shot of them…did you notice the hens and chicks in the background? That will give you a better feel for just how small they are.

My Baby Daffodils!

So…this really is a miniature tour of my garden (pun intended)…

Here are my lovely little Hyacinths:

And then there’s these lovely little Bluebells…

I do love them, however I do find it amazing how these little tufts show up in my garden – EVERYWHERE!  They’re almost as bad as my “bad hair day” plants.

OK, yes, I’m one of those gardeners…a few names stick in my brain and then there’s those that don’t, so I make up my own names for them!

And yes, I couldn’t pass up one quick little photo of this little pansy.  My nephew calls them Johnny Jump Ups…

Is it just me or are all these photos a little blurry?  Oh well…slash professional photographer off my future profession list.

One more photo just for fun…

Meet Mr. Bunny…

This picture was taken a week ago – as you can see we still had a little snow on the ground – and as you can see we have to put a “winter/spring” fence up to protect my garden.  Not from bunnies, but actually from the deer – they like to eat ALL my tulips!!!

The little buggers…we’re fixing them this year – the fence is staying up until my tulips are done blooming – hopefully they will bloom in the next few days – they’re close!  Woot, woot!

Back to flowers…

I’ll continue to post flowers as they bloom – and hopefully I can post a picture of my “garden bench” area soon too!  And…I need to pull out my “junk” garden decor too!

I LOVE SUMMER in Minnesota!

I think we skipped the Spring season part of the calendar and just jumped in with both feet to Summer.  Hmmmmm….makes me think of Grandma’s cabin…we’ll have to post a few fun pictures from there too!

Hold on – it’ll be a beautiful, colorful and fun ride!
