Front Yard Flowers

Okay, I am just a little proud of myself because I was able to plant flowers in my front flowerbed. I can't wait until they start to grow and fill in. I don't think my knees will ever be the same again though. They are bruised from kneeling but oh well. I love flowers and it is kind of like therapy for me to be outside taking care of them. I need to thank Heidi, Mallory and Gabe for planting the impatience for me. I just couldn't get those done. My cousins have been in town and my Steve Alston (my cousin) was a life saver and hung my window baskets and actually planted one of them. He also hung my basket hangers on the front porch pillars. Troy is very grateful and really owes Steve dinner for doing these jobs that Troy wasn't too thrilled to do anyway. I apologize for the messy porch. I should have moved all that stuff before taking pictures but oh well. So, now is my time to brag about my flowers.







These aren't impressive yet, but I am hoping that as
they fill in they will be much prettier





Lynnie, Frank told me not to tell you where I got
the baskets. But for anyone else who wants to know,
it was at Western Gardens. (hehe)
