Flowers

Dante and I stopped to that orange hardware store looking for sand for the basketball hoop and flowers to plant for the weekend.

I still think it is very early but finally caved and purchased a few plants.  I love flowers but as I stated before because we had such large flower gardens at our old house (and they were such high maintenance) I was not sure I ever wanted to deal with the work involved again.  But I do! 

I have some houseplants that we brought inside last fall and attempted to keep them alive through the winter.  I think I did a pretty good job and now it is time to see if they can handle going back outside.  I am hoping to get a few succulents for Mother's Day because I think they are my favorite type of houseplant.  I love the variety and uniqueness they offer.
