Bloomin' Flowers!

If you've never been thrilled to the very edges of your soul by a flower in spring bloom, maybe your soul has never been in bloom.
~Terri Guillemets

The kids and I went to a greenhouse today! I have never been to this greenhouse before...but my mom and mother-in-love have each told me how lovely it is! I needed to get some tomato plants for the garden...and I figured I would look around at all their flowers as well!

It was absolutely beautiful. They had lots and lots of greenhouses there, holding lots of gorgeous flowers! My heart jumped as I looked around! **They also had wonderful prices...which I loved as well!* The only bad part was the fact that it was so hot in the individual houses...just as a greenhouse should be...but it was *super* hot! The kids' cheeks were turning red as we walked through the rows!

If I had had places to plant more flowers, I would have bought even more than I did! It is my firm belief that you can never have too many flowers planted around your home! :)

I let the children each pick out flowers to plant...which they were thrilled about! :)


Finally, we had to leave....but I really wanted to stay! I look forward to going back sometime soon. It was a beautiful place to buy flowers! :)

Once home, we planted flowers that Xavier picked out, in the big crock below! I believe they are petunias! The kids got busy planting their flowers.....

The mug X is holding in the picture below, was made for Chris, by my mom! It got a chip in it though :( so Mom made him another....and as I was looking around for things to plant flowers in...I thought this would be a *great* idea! So X planted a pansy in it!!! :)

Madelyn doing some planting....

Jax *and monkey too* planted a flower....


Some flowers I planted...I love the pink and white together! :)

Flowers love a drink on a warm, spring day! :)

Madelyn planted some flowers in a small, old bowl that we had. *I need more crocks! ;)* And I set it on my scripture stone.

Now...a bit drained from the sun...everyone is resting in the shade and coolness of the house. I'm sure once everyone cools off a bit, the kids will be right back outside again...running, playing, jumping. :)

My beloved spake, and said unto me, Rise up, my love, my fair one, and come away. For, lo, the winter is past, the rain is over and gone; The flowers appear on the earth; the time of the singing of birds is come, and the voice of the turtle is heard in our land;
~Song of Solomon 2:10-12

Thanks so much for stopping by for a visit! From the thousands of blogs out there, I truly appreciate you stopped at mine for a time. I hope you each have a wonderful weekend! :)

Be joyful always; pray continually; give thanks in all circumstances, for this is God's will for you in Christ Jesus.
~1 Thess. 5:16-18
