A patio corner for beautiful container gardens.

Really enjoyed planting herbs last year in containers.

I love the look and the prettiness of them.

 This year I came across a few containers that I purchased with the intention of creating a colorful flower arrangement of plants as well as some foliage and texture.

Found some ideas at the Home and Gardens magazine.

 Now if just can stop raining so we can play in the yard. 

Gardner Village~A bit of sun...

After a week of rain,

 Saturday came all sunny and warm.

I invited Cristine and cute Leah

to Gardner Village.

It felt really good to be outside and to feel the sun.

Love all the shops, my favorite of course is always

 "Welcome Home", found a little blue bird

for my shelf at my Red Room

...looks darling.

Gardening...

Yesterday Cristine and I spend a couple of hours gardening.

 We planted flowers and our small herb garden.

It was fun and relaxing and a cherished time for us specially after she went through weeks of finals at the U and I had a couple of extra busy weeks myself.

Life really gets crazy

and when this rare moments came along

 is a blessing in our lives.

Cristine took these pics in Chile

 from my Mom's beautiful gardens,

 we only hope to achieve

a bit of these colors by mid summer.
