"Iris and Butterfly"

The new landscaping project that we have been doing

 in our front yard is coming along well.

I just planted some iris bulbs

and in no time at all they have popped up out of the ground.

From the way they look they'll

probably be blooming soon.

This note card painting that I did

reminds me of just how pretty

flowers can be when they

are in bloom.

This week we have been adding new landscaping to the front of our home.

It has been a lot of very hard work but finally it's starting to come together and

it is looking great!

We used a wheel barrel, planted flowers and watched over a Mommy and Daddy Robin

as they worked very hard at feeding and keeping their two babies warm.

They had built a nest over our front porch light and I convinced my husband

to leave it alone until they were done using it.

We did have to be very careful

 as we went in and out of the front door, so they wouldn't fly inside of our home.

I was able to sit back away from the nest and get many wonderful photos

of the robins in action.

Events like these help to inspired me.  

I feel like a new painting will be coming soon!
