Rain stops play.....

I had really wanted to get outside today and plant the things I had bought. I want it finished. Well, sometimes things just do not go as planned. That's OK we got my Shepherds Hooks and I got the bird feeders sorted out so they are close to the deck. That way I can get pictures of birds up close. I did pick up some pretty small pansies at Meijers. I seldom get out of a garden place without something.



I love Pansies and Violets. Such happy little faces.





The berries will be thick on the Mountain Ash, look at the blooms. The bees are buzzing around the blossoms. I tried to get pictures of the bumble bees but they would not stay still long enough. I LOVE Bumbles.



The Lilac is almost out in my garden. The smell is already divine.




Meanwhile.....while we worked on the sandbox, Brea the little trouble maker made herself a hiding place among the shrubs. Not sure what that was all about. I think she wanted to watch us without having Tristen chasing her around.



She had been busy eating some of my ornamental grass. Isn't she cute?
