  9. I'm envious of all your beautiful flowers! Isn't Teddy funny in his favorite spot! Duke has a favorite spot in each room and a few outside. Are you going to do Karen's challenge? It was fun!

    Lovely visit this morning, wish I could have had coffee in your garden with you!

  14. Your spring flowers are spectacular! I am a bit behind with my planting this year; all the late rain slowed me down a bit. However, I am almost caught up and ready for lots of blooms.

  22. What a treat to visit your garden. Flower power for sure.

    It is always amazing how so much of a fur person's personality shows in a photo. The first photo of Teddy Sweet Boy, almost peeking in, he knows he is being photographed. He is so smart!

    Happy evening to you both. love, the wild magnolia

  23. I love this post! I'm so envious of all your flowers! And will you just look at little Teddy sunning himself! Have a wonderful weekend!

    Didn't it drive you nuts that Blogger was down most of the day yesterday and then lost all the comments!

  24. I'd forgotten how pretty Columbine is! when we lived in Alaska we had it there, and it was one of my favorites!

    I hope your week is ending on a good note--Enjoy your weekend!!

  25. You've got some beautiful flowers growing and blooming. Wow - you're way ahead of my garden.
    I especially love the photo of Teddy.

  26. I am sure I already commented, but with blogspot's "maintenance", it seems to have disappeared.

    Beautiful pictures, as always! I especially like the one with the ladybug.

  27. I just wanted you to know that I left a comment on this post 'before' Blogger shut down, I have no idea wheather you actually got that comment or perhaps Blogger is rerunning the old posts again. Your blog is not the only one that has my comments missing...I am not convinced that they actually are up and running properly yet...hmm.

    Have a great weekend.

  28. Have you some how moved to England Kary? Because it sure looks like you have an English garden going on. I love all the flowers, brick and pea stone. The sunny spot Teddy found would be where I'd be perched in that California weather. It's been a long time, Ive missed you. Thanks for my birthday wish!!!
