A Walk Through My Yard

[reflect1light]

So I was outside in the rain yesterday and decided to document my yard through the flowers in it. :) Since Sunday, my cherry blossoms have fully bloomed and are smelling soooo good.

I have 2 cherries and 2 plums in the corner of my front right yard. I am not sure what is around them, but I am looking forward to finding out.

I have holly trees that are blooming, which I have never seen before!

This one is in the shade and hasn't fully bloomed... here is the ones that are blooming

I have a purple lilac bush (tree really!) that is just starting to blossom.

and whatever these little guys are. They are really more purple than the picture is coming out as, but they are everywhere, along with tons of mint.

This is my forsythia bush. It is the first thing to bloom to signify spring! :) I loved getting pictures of it with raindrops. :)

This fuzzy plant is at the base of my walnut tree. I am not sure what it is, but I am thinking maybe lambs ear?

This isn't flowers, but this darling creek runs along the back side of our property.

And I have to share my pond, which is right outside my front door. It is complete with salamanders and ducks. :)

I don't have any really good pictures, but the trees in the top left side of the picture are 20+ year old apple trees! I can't wait to make apple pies, apple sauce, etc!

Wow....what a beautiful yard!  Sounds like you are new to this yard and possibly will have lots of lovely blooms popping up all summer!  I hope you decide to share your yard throughout the year!
