Spring Is About To Spring!!!

I know, I know.. Linda hasn't posted anything other than some pictures in long time, so maybe she just isn't much of a blogger.. That may very well be true... Sometimes it is just hard to find the time to type up something witty and interesting... And sometimes when I do have the time, I find that I don't have anything witty and interesting to say!!! Well, right now I have a little bit of time, and we'll just see if witty and interesting follows...

I am really looking forward to spring this year for the first time in a couple of years. Two years ago I was pregnant with Ian and on restricted activity, so I did not get to go outside and play very much. Then last year Ian was still a baby, so it was tough to get out much. But this year.... Ian is an ambulatory toddler (20 months old right now), and he loves to go out and play! That means that I get to go outside and play a lot too!!! Woo hoo!!!!

One of several things that I inherated from my Dad was a love of gardening, especially gardening. His flower beds were always just overflowing with all kinds of flowers, and I have traditionally done the same thing myself. Except for the past 2 years.... That is going to change this year, and I'm so excited!!!! In a few weeks it will be time to go out there to my rose garden and do battle with them as I do the spring pruning. That is always a huge job since there are about 12 bushes to deal with. But I will get them pruned into submission!

Once it gets warm enough, I'll head to the greenhouses and decide about annual bedding plants. I haven't done those in several years... I know that there will be marigolds and petunias, but I'm not sure what else... I love lantana, so I will get a few of those.. Actually, right now the daffodils are abut to bloom... They will be so pretty. There are so many of them out there!! I know that I should probably thin them out, and I may do that this year...

I'll take some before pictures soon and post them, and then post updated pictures throughout the season.

I must go for now... Remember that God is wonderful and He loves each one of us whether we deserve it or not!!!
