Post 219: Waiting for Peonies to Bloom

Ever since the peonies quit blooming last summer I have been anticipating there reappearance. I love them. The way they look the way they smell, reminds me of childhood. Sitting on the cool cement porch, the hum of the neighbors radio, the smell of mom baking mixed with the sweet scent of peonies <3<3
I was playing with the new camera and the zoom lens the other day, seeing if I could catch anything interesting. I live in the woods but it seems as though all of the insects and animals were hiding. The pup did manage to chase this squirrel up a tree and I got a few sub par pictures. It wasn't until after I put the pictures on the computer that I noticed the baby squirrel!
I have been impressed so far but still have A LOT to learn. I refuse to have such a nice camera and use it in automatic mode...I actually took this picture from INSIDE the house. pretty awesome huh?
And I am posting this because we have these little purple flowers growing all through the woods. They are quite pretty and fragrant but I am clueless when it comes to identifying flowers. Do any of you happen to know what these are called?

Post 172: Oh My Peonies

My lovely flowers!
Peonies are my FAVORITE and they make my heart happy! The owners did a fantastic job with flowers around here. Every two weeks I get a new kind of flower blooming :D
Too bad they were not able to keep up with the vegetable garden...It is my project for next year!

Post 28: First Bloom of the Year!

So spring is here and summer is creeping up on us. I woke up this morning to find my first Lilly bloom of the year! Isn't it lovely?



My husband must think I am a insane, I woke him up and made him go outside and check it out with me early this morning as i proceeded to have a little photo shoot. I guess I am a bit of a nut, but the fact that any plant survives in my care is pretty phenomenal. Thank goodness these flowers are so resilient :D
