our yard today

Photo Details
Julie DeGuia Creative Team Member Registered: January 2009 Location: Washington State Posts: 2,906	So this was originally spread out over two pages using another Michelle Martin template. But I saw this new one today and decided it would have more impact all together. 17 pictures on one page... now that is my kind of layout! And isn't the little flower stamp just the cutest thing? These will actually be sets of three flowers at different heights, but I only had room for one. TFL! Journaling: I decided to go for a mini photo-walk in the backyard and was surprised at all there was to capture. All but the wasp nest (which I noticed later in the evening while pulling out the lawn mower) were taken over a period of 30 minutes. If you look closely, there is beauty everywhere! A lone caterpillar, the last of our yummy tomatoes, a dead tree which needs to be removed and the bright yellow flowers on the end of each sunflower seed. A decorative bird house which the kids brought and left outside, the last of the summer blooms, the dried up seeds of the hollyhock plant, and the unclaimed wishes of dandelion fluff. More details. Wood from our chopped-down ash tree ready for camp fires, dried-out branches from trimming our ornamental plum (waiting to be discarded), peach and arborvitae tree leaves turning their fall colors and a few last hollyhock buds ready to bloom. An abandoned wasp nest, one of the many mushrooms invading our lawn, the yellow squash plant still producing, and the seeds from Alex’s sunflower plants ready to be harvested! And all this, just from the backyard!
