Lemonade on the porch on Mother's Day. My Maddie knows how to serve her Mommy.
Mother's Day lunch also thanks to Maddie. That girl goes all out for me.
I had just gotten done trimming all the tree sprouts shooting up from the roots (is there a way to stop those?) when Millie thought it looked like a perfect place for a rest while she patiently waited for me to throw the ball some more.
This is how I spent my sweetie's paycheck, I mean, morning. I have enough love in my heart for all of the flowers of the world that need homes. I had almost forgotten how very much I love gardening. It's like I've found an old friend.
I've been so busy working in the yard this week and hope to be back next week to show you what I've done. There are dramatic things happening in our dirt. I hope you spend some time with your hands in the Earth this weekend too.
I just bought the same plants but in red! They are so so pretty! Love that bin/tote that they are in!! Where did you find that or did you make it??
ReplyDeletethat is a fabulous way to spend the week. hugs
ReplyDeleteI've been out putzin' in the yard today. We are getting temps in the 80's today and warmer over the weekend. Not sure how much will get done out there. Cute Gin Fizz glass!
ReplyDeleteThe phlox is a pretty plant. I also love having a car boot full of plants and what follows afterwards.
ReplyDeleteNo way to stop the root shoots. They are the bane of my gardening existence.
ReplyDeleteI'm fixing up Maddie's room as we speak.
Please make sure she brings the Gin Fizz glass and the adorable strawberry bowl with her when she moves to my house.
And the paisley shirt.
She doesn't have to call me mom. Mama T will do just fine.
Love all your flowers!! What a sweet lunch!!
ReplyDeletei'm a follower now. looks like it was a great week. the lunch looks yummy. now i am hungry.
ReplyDeleteI'm just catching up with you and had to post and tell you that when I made Emma's lunch today I gave her farm fresh strawberries in that same Anthro bowl. We both commented on how pretty they looked together. I took a picture too... It made me laugh when I saw your photo! Great minds, huh?
