sundays pretties

just a lazy sunday,



except for the bees, they ARE busy. if you don't like bees, don't plant the mexican sunflowers, because they are inundated right now. this little guy did not care that i was 8 inches away from him, he kept right on going :)



also, the "salad plate" sized hibiscus plants are blooming too. photos do not do these justice, you have to see the huge blooms in person. look quick, they only last one day. but the plants have alot of blooms, so i get one-a-day for quite awhile.



unfortunately, the whole lawn is dead. i think it's been about 6 weeks since the last rain. that is a bit too long for grass, so i've said "goodbye til next year" to it. this little plant is not too worried though, he decided to bloom in the middle of the yard anyway.



and just when i'm about ready to camp out in the yard all the time, i see that there is beauty right IN the house too :) be blessed today!
