Today will be a quick one. We did work on the yard yesterday but we ran out of day before we pressure washed the patio, so it is time to get at it.
I went out this morning and took a few pics of the first, of hopefully many, blossoms that will colour our world this summer.
The Bleeding Heart that Genie & Alec gave Dan a couple of years ago. Last year it was massive and I am pretty sure it will outdo that this summer! The flower bed Dan built last year. Those brown spots are seed pods from our neighbours’ trees. They are everywhere- including in our house thanks to Molly’s long thick coat of hair.Marigolds for the Welcome basket this year. (Genie’s favourite flower).Pink & Purple Petunias for the pond planters this year. And the very first buds on one of the peonie plants that daughter Jen gave me a couple of years ago. They are MY favourite garden flower! I cannot wait to see them in full bloom!
That is it for today. I have to get to work, but I will be back – tomorrow! Take care and have a great day! 💞🌞
We are getting our share of the heatwave this week. It is a little warm to get motivated but I have a few July ‘Magical Moments’ to share today. I hope you enjoy.💞
The magic of modern technology yesterday when I headed out to the store. Brian Adams and air conditioning. I even tried the seat butt cooler. Jury is still out on that. 😂My Coral Bells (Heuchera) are starting to bloom! The blossoms attract butterflies and produce seeds which I can use the to start new plants next year. Because the seeds from a plant can be any color, irrelevant to the parent plant, next year I will have a rainbow of Heuchera plants.And our cucumbers are finally starting to take off 🤗Best magical moment for the day – our granddaughter Gabby is celebrating her sweet sixteen birthday today. Sweet she is – especially when she is doting on her little brothers! 🎂
I hope you enjoyed our July Magical Moments of the day and here is wishing you all a bit of your own magic today! 💞
