    Such adorable kiddies and kitty!

    Chuck is so very handsome and looks as soft as can be. Give him a big hug from me. I sure do miss my kitty.

    And Paul, they look like they are having a blast! That is one happy pumpkin! Beautiful family, beautiful picture.

    Thanks for sharing, friends. : )

    Friends indeed!

    Wow...

    NO wonder you don't post often, Paul. Such gorgeous happy children! Thank you for sharing that delightful moment.

    Anita...brava ~ great photos & montages! A Brug MAANsia forest! ((lol)) I'm so happy I finally enjoyed my flushes of flowers before I saw THAT! And what magnificent David montage ~ thanks so much for sharing too.

    Now I am focusing on my Winter gardening ~ the eye candy heucheras and succulents. Hope to find time to putter around pot them up together as displays soon. Here's graptopetalum in the morning mist (another nod to Anita & scowl at the bear)



    And here is my Echerveria doorstop ~


    I fell in love with 'Frosted Violet' heauchera at a local nursery, Garland, the other day on a bone meal shopping trip, but until I can dazzle you with that one, here is a snapshot of Mocha & Caramel to leave you with.

    Debbie-What a nice box and love that Spider String Theory....I couldn't see your picture just photobuckets page.

    Jean-It sure is pretty and different even if it smells bad.

    Anita-What gorgeous blooms...your local paper should have you on the front page in an article or better yet you should send to birds and blooms magazine and let them do a feature article. Beautiful

    Shirley, I agree with you about Anita's park!

    Congratulations on that gorgeous stapelia, Jean!! It seems like growing that is a real art & science. I will just enjoy yours from this distance I think, lol!

    And congrats to you, Debbie, on that big score of a box! Rox rocks, see?

    Mary, here is a thumbnail of that tall mid-season peach daylily that I hope you can ID:

    Glad you reposted, I was thinking I was having a bad day? Could not see anything but a bunch of butt heads, thanks.

    Shirley,

    Karen,
    That's why DH is having a fit, they are climbing the Emerald Green Arboraties(sp)

    Have a great day all..:)Anita

    Wow! Beautiful pictures!

    Shirley, looks like you had a great time in such a beautiful cabin! Did you bring your own tree? Dawson & cousin are precious! Such handsome little boys! What is the age difference?

    Carol...sorry! I didn't have enough time yesterday. Your granddaughter looks beautiful! I'll bet you're getting so excited to meet your new great granddaughter!

    Okay, here's your Talon fix, lol!

    He is about 6 mos. - 6 1/2 mos. in all the pics.

    Sitting unassisted...

    Getting ready to eat with a spoon for the 1st time...

    Breastmilk on a spoon!

    We haven't started him on solids yet. We are going to feed him homemade baby food and will start with banana this week!!

    Put 'em up!

    Go Steelers!

    One more...

    Look what Santa is bringing Talon...it's a bird sled!

    C'mon T.D.'s....let's see some more pics. I'll bet Canna has some cute holiday photo's to share. : )

    HUGS,

    Oh Dawn those are precious he has changed so much since the last pictures. I really like the one with his hands held up and it does look like at gunpoint. I always check our picture thread when I first pull up gardenweb and love to find someone has posted pictures. The tree was actually there when we arrived so that was nice for them to decorate. Dawson and Joshua are 3 months apart and best buddies. They will start school together and that's good because Dawson will always look after him. Joshua is a bit shy and might let others bully him but not Dawson.

    Carol-You will be posting baby pictures before long, March is not that far off. We will have another precious baby to watch grow up.

    It is about time !! well worth the wait tho. Dawn you must remember Talon has lots of aunties ang grannies out here who can't walk over to see him we need our pics. I love my grandkids but they stopped coming a few years ago, so I am so ready for this new gg baby. I'm trying to go there for the birth, might mess up my gattlinburg trip but I'm sure you all will understand. Mamma where are you ? hugs carol

    My Christmas box from Annette arrived today! She snuck my box into the mail on the 8th & I'm so delighted with everything!
    {{gwi:2104646}}

    It was just stuffed with goodies, including the most elegant homemade card I've ever seen (just beautiful & so polished!), a delicious decandent chocolate scented candle, loads of yummy candy, seeds of all sorts of interesting new-to-me plants like yellow buddleia, moonflowers and exotic datura, a hoot of an Inspirational packet that included a booklet of Christmas prayers & hymms as well as several useful office items that remind one to "Reduce, reuse, recyle", several more presents that I'll open on Christmas and a beautiful rhizome of 'Designer Gown' TB Iris!!
    I'm sure it will dig right into its new pot, Annette ~ I divided an iris clump at Christmas a couple years ago and the rhizomes I potted back up bloomed beautifully the next Spring, although a bit late.

    THANK YOU VERY MUCH & MERRY CHRISTMAS!!

    Here's that picture of clematis 'Ramona' growing up through a 'Lady Banks Rose'. I've since had to move the rose. It grew so rampant it was literally coming through the window.

    {{gwi:2104647}}

    I'm going to look for a close-up shot.

    Wow, what an inspiration that rose/clematis photo is!...

    Happy Solstice Everyone!
    {{gwi:2104648}}


    This made me think about our Talon ~ show him this Dawn? :-) marea

    Rox, Love the Clematis! I've planted a Clematis at the base of each of my climbing roses last summer. I hope they are still there this spring.

    Marea, who is this Chuck 'friend'. Is he yours or a visiter? He is a wonderfully beautiful cat, love the eyeliner eyes. Does he have the 'attitude' to go with that look.

    Paul-I love California's snowman....too cute...When my Son lived in Hawaii they had a Mr. & Mrs. Santa Claus with their feet dangling in the local park pool...Kinda warm there around Christmas time to. Wow your children have grown since the last picture, beautiful family.

    Hi TD's,

    I had a wonderful Christmas and hope you did too. Dawn's box came 12/23, but I am just now getting time to post a picture as my whole family decended on the 23rd and didn't leave until Christmas night. Loved every minute of it!!!

    Here's the great box that Dawn sent:

    {{gwi:2104655}}

    I'll post the contents on our other link. Thanks Dawn, it is a great box and I love it.
