Yard of the Month

June Yard of the Month

in Edgemere Park

 Yes, this house looks similar to my own. Yet it had many differences.

It's actually just down the street from me and it was selected as yard of the month for June.

 This yard is more manicured than my own.

 The couple that lives here is all about restoring this home to it's original glory.

 They are leaving all the original details in the home and restoring rather than renovating.

I love that!

 I'm sure these begonias will be big and bold in another month.

 Pretty pots on the porch.

 A simple landscape out back.

A nice deck to enjoy the evening on.

 Their garage includes a small apartment. I wish I had that. I'd turn it into a studio.

Yard of the Month

 May 2015 Yard of the Month in Edgemere Park

Every year I am part of the Yard of the Month committee in my neighborhood, Edgemere Park in OKC.
This was the yard chosen for May 2015.

 The style of this house is extremely unusual. There isn't another in the neighborhood like it.
I haven't seen another even similar in the city.

 We are at the last of days for pansies. These were hanging in there for a few more days.

 Sorry, I have not been here much of late. I did not intend to take a break. It just happened.
I so appreciate all your emails about our loss of Marcus.
My Mom is doing much better.
Our little loved dogs just have such short lives
and sometimes they are just shorter than what they should be.

Above is Daisy Too who my Mom adopted in March. She has been a true treasure.

She is very loving to Mom and little Rosie.

At first Rosie didn't care about her and after the loss of Marcus, Rosie just seemed very 

out of sorts.

But lately she has really taken to Daisy Too and enjoys snuggling up with her. 

Mom is so thankful to have her.

I'll be back on Sunday with Open House Sunday and Mod Mix Monday on Monday.
