Thanks for all the family love! My sister and nieces have departed for their journey back to China, my brother and his daughter are heading back to Minneapolis, and all is quiet again… for awhile. I suppose everyone else’s houses are picking now with the school season upon us.
(that’s my aunt Madelon pictured on the right with them)
We spent lots of time shopping and playing in my mom’s beautiful backyard.
Check out this cool container she has tucked in the back among the hostas.
She has this gorgeous hydrangea bush full of big puff balls.
It’s full of flowers that seem bigger than softballs.
I always forget to plant some of these black-eyed susans, which would work well in our sunny backyard.
I thought these little roses were so pretty, even though they were past blooming and were just about to fall apart. Each flower petal looks like a heart.
My mom brought home these gorgeous roses from the garden center she works at. I have never seen variegated roses, which I guess is a new experiment.
My drawing class starts a week from today, so I have a week left to get more patchwork projects made, to sew on labels, and take pictures of everything for my etsy shop.
Hope everyone enjoyed a wonderful weekend!

Can’t wait to see your etsy shop! Congrats!
Those hydrangeas are amazing! They are my favorite flower, but I don’t have any in my yard right now. So sad! What a pretty yard!
It’s so difficult to see your family members leave. Your mother’s back yard garden is gorgeous, love all the flowers and the planter is awesome. She must have a green thumb.
Gald you had a good time with your family! Your mama garden is sooo gorgeous! Love everything abt it. 🙂 Have a lovely merry week and love to you!
Your mother’s garden is wonderful! I’m so glad that you had a great time with your family. It certainly goes quickly!
I can’t wait to see your shop up and running! Yea!
What a gorgeous yard…and it was probably so sad to see your family head back to China…but quiet can be nice too!
I love the way you explore your world..enjoy the drawing class Terri!!
I love Black-eyed Susans. Mine didn’t come back for some reason, but my Sunflowers are about 13 feet tall!
