Some things in my BACK YARD (photo essay)

First I want to let all the readers know that I am NOT and never have claimed to be a GREEN THUMB. I got lucky, though, because we actually rent a home that was previously owned by a MAGICAL FLOWER PERSON. So whatever was planted before we moved into our home is still thriving all by itself, with not much help from me. I took the kids out back today and tried to look at my yard from a different perspective. I went around taking pictures of some of the things that are beautiful to me.

The first thing I spotted was this beautiful bloom by the fence post. I don't know what kind of a flower it is, but I bet many of you on Gather will know!

Next I came across these pink blooms. They really brighten up the yard.

Here are some really cool plants/trees peeking up over the fence post from our neighbors yard into our yard! I love the burgandy on these.

 Then I came across this ORANGE MYSTERY FLOWER. We have about 5 or 6 of these blooming out! I don't know what kind they are either. Like I said I don't have much knowledge when it comes to the names of the flowers/plants. I just know that I want to take pictures of them!

Here is a photo of my four year old daughters flower garden. She planted the impatiens herself and then also added a turtle and princess pinwheel. Check it out!

My daughters plants are doing well. She is proud of her little garden!

This next picture is of my favorite piece of garden decor that I have. I think it's so important to LAUGH!!

I hope you enjoyed looking through beautiful things in my back yard today!! Thanks for coming along!
