Backyard pictures and the new purse I am working on

Here are some updated pictures of the back yard, it seems to be coming along nicely. We still have a few spots that needed to be reseeded but they will come in time. Most everything is blooming and looking nice and healthy.

Snapdragons around the tree~





This is the butterfly bush in the planter on the East side of the yard~



These are the Photinias along the back planter ~






This is a new plant that Roger just planted last weekend, it's called purple fountain grass and I really like the way it drops over the fountain~







This picture is of a new purse that I am working on, basically doing the same thing as I did on the last purse following the details of the fabric. I found this fabric at Walmart and thought it was so pretty~

  1. Your yard looks very pretty and I love your fountain. I'm dreaming of adding one of those to my yard one day. I like the new purse too... the embroidery work is so pretty and adds so much detail.

  3. You yard looks great! I love the fountain grass. Also wanted to say you son looks so handsome in his uniform. I'm glad you got to spend a little time with him. I understand how you feel, my son was in the Navy for several years and it was very hard, especially when he went to Iraq twice.
