Gardening and Hide and Seek....

I am really enjoying watching everything that we planted from seed start to grow... IT amazes me..... My sunflowers are starting to all bloom..... They are fabulous. Sunflowers make me so happy. They are perfect and gorgeous..... I have fake sunflowers all over my house.... really there is nothing better than having my own garden full of them....


I am learning a lot about sunflowers... When they first bloom they look a lot like a daisy..... then everyday they open more and more. This the same bloom I posted the other day.... It looks totally different than it did on day one....

They blooms last a long time. These are mammoth sunflowers and can get to be up to 10 feet tall with 12-16 inch blooms. I cannot wait....

I also have ears of corn growing!!! They are about 5 inches long right now!


Here are the jalapenos.....





Aloe Vera....


Now this is my beloved lemon tree. Hurricane Ike plucked this thing out of the ground and literally threw it across the yard. We planted it where it landed (thinking maybe it picked that spot ;) ) and I have to say it's doing well.... we have tons of baby lemons!



Rosemary....


I Love my garden!

Today Briley picked these "because she loves me" and I put them in water... so sweet...




After Dinner Briley wanted to play Hide and Seek.... so.... She first started by hiding behind this plate.... I told her she would have to do better than that.

So next she moved to the pantry..... So cute.... Not obvious or anything :)


After I found her....

Next place she picked was our bed..... Can you find Briley???


My two precious angels after dinner.... They LOVE to play together. Briley runs around Kayelyn in the high chair and Kayelyn just cracks up! These two grow closer and closer everyday. Its a joy to watch them together... I am baffled the we managed to make two of the most gorgeous kids I have ever seen... and SMART! Wow... they are smart..... We are so Blessed.....
