cookie and flowers

Some pictures of the past week to share on this very rainy Thursday

To start 

Grand girls Cookie girl had to have a shampoo and cut last Saturday.

She loves the primping

Before

She is part sheep dog and poodle or a sheepadoodle

I managed to get the rest of the tulip bulbs planted as they all came up in the pots. 

I was surprised and just about all have blooms

around the lamp post and around the tree bed I am still working on

I picked just one hyacinth and the scent filled air downstairs

I had moved many strawberry plants to pots last year and now I see the blooms in the pots

they are doing well

See that little tiny Iris?  I found these at Walmart garden center for one dollar in pots with four and sometimes five in one pot.  They are here around lamp post and some in pots at sidewalk.

In the town of Ashland Va is this carving from the tree a stately Eagle.

Very fine piece in the front yard of the home.
