PROOF!! Everything I touch does NOT die!

This summer I have been on a mission to transform my backyard from a pit of despair to a place where beauty and life abound. OK, I really just wanted to see if I could grow something. So here is the photographic evidence and yes these really were taken in my back yard!! ~I LOVE yellow roses and the pink edges make them twice as beautiful!~

~Poppies are not bad to look at either. These ones are little troopers. Nothing seems to kill them.~




~Gerber Daisies, although simple, have always made me think of summertime~


This Monster is not in my backyard but across the street (that's my house in the top right corner). This is the granddaddy of all scary looking weeds. I would hate to fall into that bad boy.
Thank you for humoring me.

I really do enjoy your blog, you are such a sweet girl, and holy cow, I love your flowers, we have pretty ones at our house but our children destroy them. poor flowers.

Isn't is amazing when you actually get something to take root and thrive. I love walking out and looking at the flowers that are doing well. The others I just pass by. Braiden said I saw your blog and it looks so cute.
