Sunflowers

Especially for Tammy who loves them !!! All my three sunflowers are showing their colors and they are beautiful. They are also a good larder for the bugs in the garden.

Here are some pics:
It's funny but one is black in the middle while the other ones are yellow/greens in the middle (I used the same seeds though).

Our big one bloomed !!!
Some guests are already enjoying the free restaurant !
Yesterday, we went to the seaside where the kids enjoyed some free rides during the afternoon.
We could have even gone to England as the ferry boat harbor was very close.
This little fellow let me take his picture:
But we were there for the free rides:

If I show flowers

I should get at least 35 comments right? As you may recall, the house is brand new so we have the right to "play" with the garden and plant whatever we want. So I planted three roses bushes: two roses and one yellow. I got them for cheap at the supermarket so I was not really sure how they will look once they will bloom. All I wanted was to get a scented bush. And look at this amazing flower: it's huge !!!!
Look at the size next to Emma's hand. It seems everyday it gets bigger and bigger. Today it was the size of my hand. ( I really need to measure it because I never saw roses that big.)
I would have never guessed it could be so huge because at first, it looks that way:
The color is really lovely:
Steb decided that the neighbor's dog named "pal" could become his best friend so he decided to blow bubbles to him. As you can see eveybody is busy doing what they do best
My squirrel is trying to look his best for you ladies !!!
Tomorrow is the first day of sales season but Emma is going to sing in her last music class and Steb has his music show in the afternoon. I also need to not skip Emma's last violin class because for a strange reason I have the feeeling the class is already over ... oops! I also tend to forget that my dentist appointment ison thursday but for that one, I know why: I hate dentist appt
