Random pictures



Some random pictures from last week...





I love my Keds.


A sign we found while cleaning up the backyard.


The view from my kitchen, with my new birdbath.

Flowers and/or herbs will be planted around it soon.











My pretty pink tree.



I hope everyone had a lovely weekend.

I just got back from spending time with family, so I'm happily exhausted.

Thank you for the Happy Easter wishes :)

I made up my mind about the fireplace and I'll post about it soon ;)

  1. I'm in love with your view of the mountains. I've only seen mountains a few times. But to be able to walk outside and have them there everyday is unimaginable to me! And maybe you even see them through your windows.

  2. Beautiful rose in the cream bottle. I have various sizes of milk and cream bottles all around the house. With the herbs and flowers around the birdbath, you'll have a nice view. Kathleen in Az

  3. Such a pretty rose in the bottle, and I love flowers in bottles. Love your view outside your kitchen window. The sign you found in the yard isn't too bad either. I can't believe your Iris are in bloom? Wow I can't wait for blooms in our garden...I know their coming...just not fast enough!

  16. I'm getting a bird bath this year! Yippee! I have to admit, I'm that girl that left buckets of water outside last year for the birds, so I'm looking forward to having an actual bird bath :)

  25. What an awesome view! We are lucky enough to have a utility easement behind our house so we get to see trees instead of houses most of the year. Unfortunately, that easement comes into our backyard another 14' and we really need a storage building and if we have to come in the full 14' it will be sitting dead center of the back yard. I haven't put any flowerbeds in the backyard yet - I wanted to wait until the storage building went up. (Waitin on HOA approval)

Thank you so much for leaving a comment. It means so much to me that you took the time and I read each and every one. If you don't have a blog, look for a response under your comment. I try to get to them within a few days :)

For some reason, the comment box doesn't always show up, so if you want to leave a comment, replying to someone else's comment seems to work. Also, I've had to switch from safari to chrome in order to comment on blogger, so that might be the issue. If not, you can always reach me via email, located on my side bar. Thank you!
