Roses and Snow

Good news. Last night it was really nice out, like 66 degrees when we got home around 6pm.

So, I decided I should trim the roses. The bushes are getting very unruly and have started buds! I trimmed the one by the garage and started the one by the mail box. But then it got dark and I stopped.

Guess what we may have on Saturday? Snow.

I hope our roses don't die.

My Lawn Rose

I walked in after mowing the lawn on Monday and found this pretty rose from our yard with a tall glass of iced white tea and a note from Shannon. Aw.

Yard Flower

Due to the hurricanes that have been strolling the area lately, we've gotten a lot of rain. This means that I can't mow the lawn whenever I want to due to rain. It also means I need to mow the lawn more often, due to the abundance of water the weeds are getting. Although, there are less weeds then there were 2 weeks ago.

The other thing flourishing because of the Hurricane's Gustav and Ike are our roses. The homeowners before us had some roses planted. Three in the back and one by the garage. So yesterday, Shannon went out and got a pretty pink one. :) He said, if they're growing we might as well cut them instead of letting them fall to the ground. There are about 9 more out there too.
