My Garden Tour

My garden has been so blissful this year.  I'm ashamed to say that it is probably from all the rain and snow that I complained so bitterly about early this spring.  Also the weather has stayed so lovely and on the coolish side and it has been wonderful for all my plants.  Even some of the things that usually struggle have filled in so nicely.  So just for fun I thought I would take you on a virtual tour of my garden and show you some of my favorite spots in my garden.  Enjoy!  Happy Gardening to you all!

I love pansies and this little sunflower rock path

Zinnias are the happiest flowers!

Love all my little zinnias

My peonies and lovely vincas!

Love to feed the birds

My little waterfall

It cascades right into my pond

My happy back porch

My front entry way with my fountain and a lovely little curve of grass just big enough to sit and think!

The greenery has loved the mucho water!

My Herb Garden

My Rose Garden



This is a lovely little rose I received for Mother's Day last year.  I was happy it made it through the winter!
Thanks Chris and Nadia!

My new garden shed!  Isn't it beautiful!

Amanda's Mission Call

Image
We waited 10 long weeks for Amanda's mission call to come!  She turned in her papers on December 16th and her call didn't arrive until February 20th.  That is an unusually long time to be waiting.  All around her friends and friends of friends were getting calls returned in as little as 1-3 weeks.  We were all starting to get discouraged.  Due to the new lower missionary age requirement we had been hearing that the MTC was being full to over flowing and we were beginning to worry that she wouldn't head out for her mission until late summer.  Not really what she planned on!  The last few weeks were especially difficult and I could tell Amanda was beginning to question and wonder if she had made the right decision and why in the world this was taking so long. It was so crazy! In the mean time Amanda and I had planned a trip to Seattle to visit Grandma Martenson and celebrate her 88th birthday!  I wanted Amanda to be able to see Grandma before she ...

Girl's Spa Day Out Gone Very Wrong!

Image
A few weeks ago I and a few of my cute co-workers decided to go for a "Girl's Spa Day"! We booked "Bodywraps" and talked about it for weeks, how fun it would be and how many inches we would lose. When they asked if we all wanted to be in the same room we replied sure..it would be more fun that way. We were pumped! The big day arrives and we show up at the appointed hour....little did we know. We each had our own personal body wrapper who escorted us into one big room with four beds and said, "Okay, take off your clothes!" We looked at each other, looked at them and said, "Ummmm, we are not that kind of friends." Hailey didn't mind as she was the only one with regular unmentionables. The rest of us had to don the "paper underwear" that they keep for just such occasions....oh my, it was like wearing a paper thong! We begged for robes...an essential part of any spa experience I have ever had...and were brought some towels ...
