A Garden visit and a surprise ~


Hello ~ I hope everyone is well ~ Welcome to my garden.  The garden is a little late this year, but I am soooo welcoming the warm sunny weather.  Let's take a stroll ....


I love tulips, don't you?

My phlox have run wild. The wind keeps blowing leftover leaves in them ;-)


Can't wait for my poppy to bloom


LOVE, LOVE, LOVE Hostas

This chippy little child's chair just lends a little whimsey


Every garden has to have a fairy or two ;-) although you can see she is blowing in the wind...is she shy?


Mr. Vintage built this little hillbilly shack, which is my potting shed.  I just LOVE it....
Dwarf iris ~ my other iris haven't bloomed yet,

Scooter LOVES to romp in the garden and she's very careful of my plants and flowers. 

now I MUST share with you the surprise that Mr. Vintage had waiting for me.  As you know, Mr. Vintage has been ill and he could not really give me anything for Mother's Day (I got flowers, but he said that wasn't enough)....He went on Kijiji and had the Vendor deliver this...(Can you hear me squealing with delight?)


Mr. Vintage, I couldn't ask for a better man, soul mate and life partner than you...

I am soooo excited.  Tell me, is there anything exciting happening to you?  Can't wait to hear ;-)

(((Hugs)))

  2. I love your hillbilly shack/potting shed. I think it has a lot of character. That little red chair is adorable and I am loving the turquoise glider! Sweet. Nothing new is happening with me. It's been rainy, windy and oh so cold. We can't get out in the yard at all, but tomorrow is looking a bit better. Here's hoping :-) Pamela

  9. Love the glider!! It's funny that my Mom said only a few minutes ago that she wanted a glider for her screen porch. I hope I can find one as nice as yours!!!
