Sunflower update

We got our first sunflower bloom this morning and it's lovely! More are just around the corner.

Maddie wanted to show just how tall the flowers are by standing next to them.

When did my princess get to be such a big girl??

Sunflower sproutlets

After all the rain we've had, the seedlings sprouted much faster than expected! Some came out with the coverings still attached.

Springtime flowers

Our new house has a great gardening area and since I'm not one to grow food, I decided that Maddie and I would grow flowers; sunflowers and bluebonnets for now.

We did sunflowers in a container last year so I'm confident that we can do sunflowers in the ground. The seeds on the right are the super super tall sunflowers (10-12' tall). The seeds on the left are a shorter variety but I just love the colors.

The smallest things amuse me...

Movin' On Up

(cue Jeffersons theme song)  Well, the Locklears have outgrown our little, first home together and we're preparing to move in 2 short weeks.  Luckily, we're moving a short mile away from our current house so it shouldn't be too difficult (keyword "shouldn't").  Although, I'm really excited to have more space, (but not particularly excited about more space to clean) I have grown very attached to our current home and I'm predicting many tears on my part. 

Wish us luck!
