This Week's Blog Post

Dolphin

Here is my latest Peruvian ceramic bead. A dolphin!

This lanyard is available at Miss Val’s Creations.

Mulch

The mulching is done for the year! 4 yards! Yes, mucho mulch. I went with a brown tone this year as my tastes are changing.

Jim helped and we actually got it all spread in 1.25 hours. When I do it by myself it basically takes me all day. Not fun!

Here is the side of my driveway which is all me! When I bought the house this was all weeds and no fence. It will have color throughout the warm season but none yet except for those forsythia at the end. As you can see, I need to buy a broom!

One of my rhododendrons is blooming!

My azalea is blooming. I do not care for this plant, but close up the flowers are neat!

My forsythia is almost all turned to green.

My redbud is blooming again!
Cardinal

This cardinal has been hanging out in my backyard. It looks like he is wearing a disguise with sunglasses and a big beard. 

He is really tiny and it is my first time seeing a baby cardinal like this! It is so cute seeing a spot of red hoping through the grass (although my yard is more like a mess of weeds since I do not like chemicals or wasting water)!

Emmett

My sweet little Emmett. His eyes opened when I was annoying him with the camera again!

This poor little guy has the worst breath of any cat I have ever come across in my life!!! I found dental water at the pet store and it actually seems to be working! It is flavorless and odorless so my feline friends do not know they are cleaning their mouths while drinking!

Thank you for stopping by! Enjoy the beautiful season! ~Val
