Some rose shots

Mom's Cherokee Rose

I took the shots of this wild climber a few weeks ago.  Since that time it has sprouted more leaves and new shots and a few buds.  A friend gave me a name for it but now I can't remember.  It had "lady" in it.  It's a jungle in there!

 

 

 

I found this poster while going through some things at the museum and the story of the Cherokee Rose caught my eye...I just had to share!

Quiet Morning...

Sure is quiet this morning…only the sounds of barking dogs, cars pulling out of driveways and the refrigerator hum.  Landon and Olivia went with Sam to Viv’s for the night.  So do you think I slept in?  Nope was up at 6 any ole way.  So took the time to pay attention to THE BLOG.  This activity is kind of fun especially when you can get inspired by others.  Anyways…I decided to upload some pics of the brood…and highlight Landon’s all important milestone…The first haircut!  He has the most beautiful hair.  So many loose curls but his mom was insistent that she cut his hair because he looked like a girl with all those curls.  Well she is the momma.  Granny thinks they are cute specifically since his hair was easier to comb out then hers(Meg) ever was.  So after watching Meg put his hair in pigtails…which by the way she did a horrible job of…and then seeing the comical attempt at her trying to cut his hair(oh let’s not forget she is quite capable of giving haircuts since when she and Sam were younger she gave Sam a military style cut, they were 2 and 3) Granny relented and helped.  He is still cute as ever but I miss the curls.

Easter 2013  He really likes to gather eggs.

The best toy in the WHOLE WORLD!

Aunt Livy and Landon with the Easter Baskets. Landon is showing off his Bunny Slippers that Granny made.

See all the curls?

MY TOY!

Good Bye Curls...I shall miss thee.

 

Maybe they will come back.

And now the birds are chirping right outside the door...the feeder must be empty.
