Daylilies 2013

Last year I had taken a road trip to buy daylilies from a farm in Medina. Here are a few new faces and some familiar ones













Enaya is 6 Months Old Already

I can't believe I havent been posting Daily on my favorite little human. Here are a couple photos from the 4th of July yesterday.















Now here are just a couple of my favorites from when I get to "babysit". There should be a better word, because I would keep my little GodDaughter full time if her parents and grandparents didn't love her so much. I will somewhat quietly wait my turn. Keep in mind that I never had my own children, so this is the first baby I saw being born, got to hold, first feeding (for me), first time bathing a child ........



 
Love This Face!!
 


Succulents

I was out shopping for my mom the other day at Wegmans, and they had a sale on succulents. The large pots were normally $7.99 and now $1.99, little pots were .99 and the cactus-succulent planter went from $21.99 down to $5.49. Could I resist ??? NO!
Here is what I bought...
I got 5 large pots a couple small and a planter all for less than $20.

Here is what I did... The first was  just a repotted succulent called an "Elephant Bush" the other is the planter I purchased already made up.

I also combined some plants to make this little pot..
 
These three pots I made up from the mix of plants and they are all together in my back room and I LOVE them. I placed them on top of an antique doilie I acquired last year.

 
I still had a lot left over so get ready for the rest.
One for the bathroom. This looks better in real life. Of course I already had the shell from some other who knows what. I think my former tenant Gemmae gave it to me
 
 
That's it for the inside. Now on to the outdoors
I decided to add to last years faery garden and start a new one in this little wagon (also recently acquired)
 

 
 



I pulled out a totem from last year and filled in a bare spot (that I created yesterday)





 
I made up a small basket for the last of the remaining succulents. I just thinned out this area yesterday and added the Shepherd's hook.
