Pretty in pink...

The past two weekends have been rainy, cold and windy but today is beautiful. Since the weather is so nice and there is rain in the forecast for Saturday and Sunday, Teak and I took advantage of the pretty day and planted a few flowers. We now have 6 bright pink wave petunias in the corner of our yard. We also planted two tulips from the Easter service. The whole planting process took about 15 minutes but the difference it makes is huge. The pink stands out against the green boxwoods and leftover brown mulch from last year.

What is it about digging in the dirt and planting something, that is calming and relaxing?I think buying flowers is similar to walking into a candy store. The bright colors draw you in and makes you want to buy all of them (until you see the price tag!!!).

I hope y'all have a good weekend! If you can, go plant a little color in your neck of the woods!
