Before & After Pics of My Flower Garden

Most of you saw my poor little flower garden when I first got it ready.  Well today it is healthy, striving and I think it looks beautiful.  I love full gardens like wildflowers growing.  I need to rearrange a few things, the wolves are now hidden, the bucket display is hidden (next year I will move it to the front) my Achilles has not  grown in two years until this year and boy have they sprung up hiding my buckets.  Lessons learned but still pretty. Perfection is not need for beauty.

The whole experience with flower gardens is in the growth and the beauty.

Sister-in-law and a Country Garden

We had a wonderful day yesterday visiting Michael's sister.  When I go up I want to be like her.  Not only is her house always in pristine condition so is her yard and she works full time.  So envious.  I am going to share some of her pretties and hope you like them too.

Ruth at our Christmas Fiesta Party.....she will shoot me for adding this photo but it is so cute.

Beautiful Patriotic display on her shed.  Awesome!

Ruth's vegetable garden with upcycled pop can flowers.  

Another view of the vegetable garden.  Weed free.  I am just so jealous!  lol

Beautiful home for the birds.  Nests already in.

Rustic windchime, I just love wind chimes.

I thought this was just a neat look so wanted to share.

Another look I thought was neat.  A log rotted, it is just a cool look.

An old log

A look inside the log.

So there is just a taste of what I found in the country yesterday.  I should have spent more time taking pictures.  Hope you enjoyed.
