Flamingo Plume

I went shopping hoping to find one of the hardy hibiscus with the huge blooms, but no luck...I did find a new hibiscus though, it's called Flamingo Plume and it's bloom is beautiful! The plant is tiny right now, but this morning it had a big, beautiful bloom on it.

Flamingo Plume

This is just one of the yellow ones I have that happened to be blooming when I went out to take a picture of the new one.

This is my oldest red one that also just happened to have a bloom.

Deer!

Last night while walking, we saw 4 deer! One was still young and had some spots. They were so cute and I like seeing them as long as they stay out of my yard and don't eat my flowers :)

Snoring

It happened to be silent in the house, I had been on the phone and had the tv paused. When I hung up the phone I kept hearing noises next to me, all that was there was Kit-Kat laying on her blanket sleeping....I kept watching and listening and sure enough it is her snoring! I have heard her snore before, but never this loud, it is so funny!

Flowers

Some of the flowers we have...

one day while taking pictures of the flowers I noticed these strange looking lizards, they are pretty scary looking!

String of Bananas-it doesn't look this good anymore, the birds stripped it down and I had to move it to the front yard where they won't bother it, at least not until they find it

Paris Hilton for President

Maybe she is the best choice for President....

Funny Pictures

This blog has some pretty entertaining pictures, it's pictures that are found in real estate listings, you wouldn't believe some of the pictures that people post, thinking that it will help them sell their house!

Curtains

I have the cutest curtains in my frog bathroom! My mom found some yellow material with green frogs and that has ribbit written all over it and she made me curtains for the bathroom! I will take pictures soon and post them. Also, we now have curtains for the kitchen windows, they just haven't been hung up yet. I need Chad to hang the curtain rods and once we get them up, I will also post pictures of them. We have been in this house for almost a year now!
