Today is going to be my first time missing Fertilizer Friday. They put my Dad back in the hospital yesterday (he was in last week too) and he is very sick this time. I'll be busy going back and forth to spend as much time with him as I can and then I'll be back to post when everything slows down here.
I still can't believe you poured those cement pavers yourself. My goodness, it's absolutely beautiful!!!
Rooster mugs! Rooster mugs! Rooster MUGS!!!!!!!

Just stopping by and making the rounds and couldn't resist a little stroll through your yard - it was very peacful and relaxing - just what I needed before heading home!
Happy Weekend to you Toots -
I don't know if you get over to RMS too much anymore (I don't too often), but you have to check out "A little bit of paradise" in the garden section. A man after my own heart with a garden like that! He might rival you with fertalizing! ;) Heather

Secondly I have a gazillion questions:
How often does it rain there?
Do you do this all on your own?
How often do you feed your plants?
Do you plant special fall plants?

Things seem to be slowing down at our house a little, so I took the time today to give your yard a good look, it is beautiful!!!!! I can't imagine how you manage to keep up with it, you must work late into the night. It's been a while since we had a good 'email chat' we'll have to do that soon.
Take care my friend and take some time to smell those beautiful flowers.
Love & Hugs

Think you can answer all our questions?
WMM
Those are just beautiful pictures.
I can sure tell how much you love your yard and all the flowers.
OK. You said on a comment to me,
"I need a cloche!".
Maybe you were only teasing, but, if not.....
Do you want to know what my little guy is in?
He is in an upside down votive candle holder, which is siting on a little glass piece.
You want a big one?
Go to the thrift store and get a cake dome. Vases also work. Upside down, with a glass knob on top.
Want more ideas? Give me a holler!!
Hope i was a help. =0))
Blessings,
Barbara Jean
wire anythings work great too.
You can even form your own with chicken wire around any shape you want.
