Treasurers from My Little Treasurers

For as the earth bringeth forth her bud, and as the garden causeth the things that are sown in it to spring forth; so the Lord GOD will cause righteousness and praise to spring forth before all the nations. -Isaiah 61:11
Three types of daffodils (the great big fluffy ones smell so good), Little Belles and Wisteria. My girls are always bringing me something sweet inside!
I have our seed packs and egg shells ready to go this week! I am planting a "salsa" garden (tomatoes, onions, jalapenos and cilantro)!! I cannot wait!
We are also putting out a ton of zinnias, three different types. They will love cutting these and bringing them indoors! We are going to try a mammoth sunflower that says 8-12 feet tall... We'll see!!!! ;0)

Daffodils are Starting to Bloom

I took my buddy Harley out to visit the daffodils today!
He loves running and jumping through them.
Here you can see the flowers on the hill going up towards the house.


Here is the second-best climbing tree in the yard. This is also the tree that I found the 5-6 FOOT copperhead or rattle snake. I can’t remember which, but I don’t really care.
It was a SNAKE!


I flew about 25 mph to the back yard, to the garden, on the John Deere, screaming for Husband. He thought I was kidding about the size of it until he saw it.
He chopped its head off and my three brave-no-fear children held it. They even wrapped it around their necks… AHHhhhhhhh.

Anyways back to my pretty daffodils. I love these closeups!
I had my coffee this morning with Kelly, oh and Regis too!!! The rain is so strong! I am glad we dug up some of the flowers yesterday! I plan on taking the 25 pots with us when we move...whenever that will be!!!
