Sweetness

There’s nothing sweeter than the look of love that a puppy gives you. Loving licks, sitting on your foot or leaning on your leg … all of those things tell you that you are the most important thing in your puppies life.

This photo was taken this past Monday after we came back from the groomer. It was her first visit to the groomer and she did well. She’s wearing a Petsmart red bandanna that was given to her after her successful grooming session.

This has been a Photohunter Saturday post with the theme being Important.

BTW When I looked at this photo published in this post I realized that her head, in real life, is smaller than this photo! She’s still tiny.

Fading Morning Glory

I’ve come to think of the Morning Glory Vine as a weed in my garden as it does much too well reseeding itself hundreds of times over. Yet, it’s flowers are lovely.

Morning Glory flowers bloom in the early morning hours and gradually close up and die off by late day. This flower is in the process of dying, but it’s still very pretty and colorful isn’t it?

Snapdragons

I didn’t plant a single snapdragon in my garden this year, but they must have seeded themselves well because I have tons of snapdragons of many colors. That’s ok. I love these unusual looking flowers.

I wonder how many will come up in the garden next year?

Azalea buds

I grow two Azaleas and one Rhododendron in my garden. This Azalea is Northern Lights. Aren’t it’s tiny flower buds pretty? The flowers are quite pretty too! I only wish my Azaleas would grow bigger … they are so slow growing.
