Weekend Gardening

For some crazy reason I am planting purple this year...seriously I was not thinking about my previous post.

My subconscious must be speaking to me though...do ya think? lol

Tonight my skin feels a little warm and tight. You know that feeling when you have been out in the yard all day...a little sun on your skin, some tired achy muscles. Oh the glorious smell of the earth and sunshine. P. T. joined us for the first part of the day. She came in the house when Megan brought her over saying "Outside, outside, outside Nana". So stinking cute. She raked and weeded, and kept trying to pick up my pruner's which I kept laying down by mistake. "Whattus that whattus that"? She rattled off in succession every minute or so =) She learned how to use her new watering can today. When it was time to come inside and eat lunch I had to convince her that we didn't water inside.

She received this gardening gear from my dear friend last week.

We started out our Saturday morning by enjoying our coffee outside in the bright sunshine on the back porch wrapped in a blanket, listening to all the birds singing, watching a pair of geese that are nesting in the springs behind our place come in for a landing, and a distinctive white hawk circling around the prairie behind our house probably looking for breakfast....it was a very good day!
