Garden Alive

I love taking pictures of my pretty flowers and plants.  I am always stunned by what I find in the garden and living around my house.  I am not usually pleased by wildlife inside my house. I, probably, will not be taking photos of any.

Anyhow, here are some photos of my garden and some things that are living in it right now.  I made these images smaller for the web but, there is still a great amount of detail to them if you look closely or zoom in.

I loved how this bug was just hanging out waiting to be shot at.  There are lots of critters in my garden that sit still for me to take portraits.  Actually, they are better at it than people, they don't get self conscious. They just let me do what I do and go about their business.
Zoom in on the lizard he is really a cool guy. I should have cropped in and zoomed. But, I didn't.
I also decided to put in some of my edibles. They can be beautiful too.




Did you like my garden tour? I wish I could just take pictures of everything that is interesting, ugly, beautiful, or creepy.  I can't though, I have little kiddies who need me! :0)

Ice Cream Parlor

A treat with the Scarboroughs. We went to our local Cold Stone Creamery.  The kids each got their usual and I took pictures this time.  I got my favorite too French Vanilla with Pecans. This one of our favorite remedies for boredom on a weekend afternoon.
