Spring Flowers

I just wanted to share some of the beautiful flowers that I am enjoying in my yard. This is the most amazing ground cover ever! I absolutely love the little white flowers. The back of the petals are dark pink, which gives it a cool look. It is spreading well through one of my flower beds. I love it!
This is some other ground cover I have. They are tiny blue flowers. Pretty!
Here are some amazing iris. I love the colors! My neighbor has already asked for some starts when I divide the purple ones.
Here is the flower bed as a whole. It's pretty full, but also pretty! The flowers are much prettier up close.
My bushes have the most amazing yellow flowers all over them!
More beautiful iris:
Here is the flower bed as a whole. Not as pretty from far away. There are many more flowers getting ready to bloom. It will be nice having more colors than just yellow (though I love the yellow ones).

Best Friends

Newton and Bullwinkle have become best friends. It makes me so happy! Newton is getting so big. He's getting closer and closer to Bullwinkle's size. I just hope he doesn't get bigger than Bullwinkle! Newton and Bullwinkle play so well together.

The above picture is from March so Newton isn't too big yet. He loves to jump and lay on Bullwinkle. Gratefully Bullwinkle doesn't seem to mind.

Tug-o-war is a favorite at our house. Newton doesn't care who his opponent is. He is quick to get in on the game!Another fun game is wrestling. Even though Bullwinkle is still bigger, he isn't always the one on top. This is the only picture that I was able to get to show that Newton is getting close to Bullwinkle's size. It's hard getting two dogs to cooperate during pictures!Here are the handsome boys and on a nice Sunday afternoon. We played outside for a while today.
