Spring Flowers

We spent a good part of the weekend planting flowers.  Neither of us has a green thumb, so this is a big stretch for us.  Even though we had no idea what we were doing, we had a great time.

I had bought a few things at Lowe's on Thursday and Saturday we headed to Home Depot for a few other things.  I must say that Home Depot had a better selection of plants.  I have no idea what kind of plants we got.  I basically picked things that were a pretty color.

We planted 6 plants in pots and put 3 bird feeders out.  So far everything looks really good.  We have even seen some humming birds around.

We also cleaned out the garage and cleaned the back porch.  The back porch looks great.  It is nice to look out the big windows in the living room and see pretty flowers, some birds and a clean porch.  I doubt it will stay like that for long.  I am not sure if the plants will die first or if the porch will get dirty first.  It is hard to tell, but I think the plants may be on the losing end.  

I just hope everything makes it while we are gone.  I am headed to Lubbock this morning for a few days and Jaime is headed to Victoria, Corpus and Houston.
