Early birds....

For some reason, this iris has been blooming for about a week.  It is weeks ahead of all the others.
I suppose the reason they are early is that they have migrated to being right against the house.  Whatever the reason, I am enjoying it.
So frilly and pretty.  Always makes me think of a princess dressed for the ball.

We have rain in the forecast....it has rained enough to make everything damp.  And the temps are cooler than yesterday.  I am not sure what to do with the day.  It would be a good day to go to the greenhouse to see if we can find more brandywine tomato plants...and we may do that, but I have gotten till I just love to be home.

I have been sitting here watching a pair of cardinals.  I wonder if they have a nest.  The male has been feeding the female.  If I have seen that before I don't remember it. I think it is too early for babies, but maybe she is getting ready to lay her eggs.

It is time for me to be getting off here.  Time I decide on something to do.  I do have fabric coming today.  I have enough crumb blocks made to make another crumb quilt top.  This time I am using gray in it....

From this past weekend...

Sarah and Lorelei came for a visit this past weekend....Sarah and her dad managed to get in a little mushroom hunting.
This first bunch is what Sarah found...
and Roger found these.  They were delicious!
***********
Not a lot is going on in our world...I just started therapy for my right shoulder/arm.  I have no idea what I did, but have very limited movement with it.  And I hurt it often.  I hope I have some quick results with the therapy but did just start so am sure it is going to take a little while at least.

We put out some tomato plants yesterday along with some bell peppers.  I should say Roger put them out....I only supervised;-)  I am already anxious for fresh tomatoes.

More of our sunshine....

Just have to show a couple pics of our own little bit of sunshine...here she is ready to go to a party.
She really, really loved her shoes....she even had me take a picture of just them.
And we have to add in a little bit of silliness.  For one more pictures, look at my Time Stand Still blog.
