Flowers make me happy, especially when I find roses in bloom on my rose bushes on October 24! We have had such a cool summer followed by a chilly fall and it has been gloomy & rainy so I needed a little cheering up! I didn't think anyone would believe I really cut these beautiful roses in the fall so I took a second picture of them, surrounded by our leaf pile in the backyard.
And just to make life a little sweeter, my day lilies are blooming. I learned from my master gardener friends that these are a native variety that blooms in spring and fall. I'm glad to have them to enjoy in my front yard.
Kids enjoying a warm fall day with our beautiful maple tree in the background.
The photo below was taken a few weeks ago from my living room window. We enjoy our view, especially since I finally got on a ladder & cleaned the outside of the windows (it only took me 3 years to work up the nerve, you can imagine how grimy they were!)
