Day 95- Aphid


I am always battling these little buggers. They are actually kinda funny if you watch them. When you get close to them they go sideways and under a leaf to try and hide from you. It took me a little work to get this picture because he kept running from me but I finally got it!

Day 94- Topsy Turvy


I decided to try out this topsy turvy upside down tomato planter. I have to say so far it's working great. I have a couple of cute little tomatoes growing on it! It's easy too, no weeding required!!!

Day 93- Gladiolus


I have some gladiolus growing in my flower bed and I just love them!!!! This is one of my favorites. The color is beautiful. I wish they bloomed year round! I got the blubs at the dollar store a few years ago and they never fail to bloom! They are must have in any garden!

Day 92- Me and my cousin


I've just gotten home from visiting my cousin. She is in the one in the pink and I am in orange. It's a blurry picture and there is a finger in the way. My seven year old little cousin took the picture!! I think she did good for a seven year old though!!!

Day 88- Orange Tree and Vinca


This is an orange tree that I've had planted in this pot for several years. I get oranges from it every year. This last year some vinca that I had planted someplace else decided to transplant itself! I didn't know vinca would do that! I love how it looks with the tree though! I wish all flowers were so easy!

Day 87- It's all about the hair


I have that kind of hair that you either have to work hard at to fix it or throw it in a ponytail. There isn't any of that washing, letting it dry on it's own and it looking good. I have super thick hair and it tends to have a mind of it's own. It seems that the hairdresser does too! Every time I go and ask her to do something she always puts her own twist on it. This was my last haircut that I had done a few days ago. The back of my hair will do OK but if I were to show you the front view you'd scream!!

Day 86- The tops of trees


Went for a walk and looked up and thought, hey this would be a great picture! These pine trees were so tall it made you dizzy looking up at them.

Day 85- Orange Blossom


This is an orange blossom on my orange tree. If you look real close there is a tiny spider on the leaf. Click on the picture to make it larger and you will be able to see it better. I didn't realize there was a spider on it until I looked at the pictures on my computer!
