If It Walks Like A Duck...

and quacks like a duck, then it must be a duck...or so the saying goes. Well, although it looks like spring and sounds like spring, it isn't really spring until i can get my flowers planted!

Yesterday it was 80 and although windy, was a wonderful day. Although I normally do not plant flowers until after April 15, I have them early this year. I love looking at them. The flower bed was a team effort. DIL wanted to plant some flowers, so she and I went and bought some. The bushes then had to be trimmed back. SIL came over with DD and dug some holes. Even the little one 'helped'.









Well, Tonight it will get down below 30, so I tucked my plants under blankets and tupperware to try to keep them warm. I hope they do okay



Hope it is warm where you are!

Well, I'm wondering if it (spring) will ever get here! I know all of this will be so pretty...be sure and show some "afters" when it all fills in. Now, send that group my way so they can do my front bed! LOL.

I hope they do well! I just hate it when my plants don't do well!

I can't wait until I can get out in my gardens this year but weather is far from 80! It will be a while yet for us. Great job getting out there so soon. Happy Easter.

Kindredly, Lynne Laura
