Pumpkins, Flowers, and Boots?!?

Strange title I know. I promise it will all make sense to you in the end.

First off Les was on call this weekend and had to go to Texarkana twice :( So that left Carter Joe and I to fend for ourselves. We got this, we can handle it. We did yard work.




Don't you love the outfit. This is all we want to wear. BOOTS. Thanks to Poppa and Nannie for the Christmas gift. They are getting scuffed up and bruised but he loves them. They are good and comfy now.

We did trim the roses back. Don't worry they will come back. Its crazy they seem to come back as long as we trim them back. They will produce gorgeous roses 3 to 4 times a year. They make the back patio smell so lovely. Les says they smell like beer. Hahaha.






The Roses Up Close and Personal!

We Also Have Hydrangeas!!

Most exciting we have pumpkins growing......

Last fall We bought pumpkins to decorate the front yard. A friend of mine told me to find a spot in the yard and let them rot. Yuk, you think. As I was pulling weeds I found this........

See all the seeds laying around.







And This..................

How awesome is that? Pretty neat. They seem to have come up over night. All we did was move them to the back yard and let them rot. By spring there was nothing but seeds left. Now plants. I can't wait to see if they actually produce new pumpkins. God is amazing.

I showed them to the hubs and said," see those plants, they are pumpkins!! (with excitement) Please don't weed-eat, pull-up, or mow down." He is the best. He said, "OK" and kept doing what he was doing. You got to love him.

Maybe next time you buy pumpkins you can let them rot and see what you get!!!

Have a great week. I plan on it.
