Everything Is In Bloom

We have lived in our house just over five years now, and ever since then, we have been busy planting flowers, bushes, trees, and plants to make our yard look nice. We have done so much work to our yard. It is just so nice to see all of the blooms and to know that all of our hard work has really paid off!

Here are some pics of our yard:



This picture was taken in the spring while the tree was in bloom. It is Anabelle's tree...planted in the summer of '04.




I just love the smell of lavender!







My favorite...the Hibiscus bush




This is the only bush/plant that survived from the previous owners...I call it the Gangbuster Rose Bush

I planted this blue flower last summer. I'm surprised it came back after the hard winter that we had.





This is the "flower garden" that the kids and I planted back in May. They are planted under Anabelle's tree in the frontyard. We had so much fun!
