We had fabulous weather for my birthday today! Christy came up for a short visit bearing gifts...and we also enjoyed some bloody marys and conversation!
These are the lovely flowers she got me, and i planted them in my wheelbarrow.
She also added some goodies to the fairy garden...this cute little Bear Hugs sign and of course, what garden would be complete without an outhouse!
I also got a gift card to barnes and noble...thanks christy, you truly are the best! :) While we were enjoying our cocktails outside, this cute Common Merganser and her ducklings swam by!
The water was running rather swiftly and the mom decided to swim across the river...we didnt think these two little guys were going to make it, but they raised themselves up high on the water and quickly skittered across to catch up with mom! It was amazing!
And here they are safely on the other side! It was fabulous to witness, and i hope they swim by again soon.
Meanwhile, my lupine finally bloomed in my garden...a first for them, so that was a treat! Christy left around 7:30, and i spent the rest of the evening painting watercolors of my garden.
Im a little rusty, but it felt good to be creative! I hope i can continue this all summer...i love painting! :)
