roses, roses everywhere

The previous owner of the house must love roses, all she planted were roses in the front yard and roses in the backyard. Spring brings out a big show of roses everywhere. They are fabulous! Every time we walk out of the front door, we are enveloped with fragrance, you don't even need to stop to smell the roses! Life is good, isn't it?

Nothing but flowers

I drove up to my driveway last week on Thursday night, and saw a glimpse of big circle of red in the front yard. Rushed out of the car to find a HUGE red rose smelling like a piece of heaven. Ran inside and grabbed Sara, rushed outside like a mad woman and told Rick that the rose was actually bigger than Sara's head. And indeed, it was bigger! God knows, we have this baby for yet another good reason. :-)

The new house and the previous owner loved roses, there are so many different kind of roses here, every day I discover some new rose blooming. The orchids are blooming as well. Don't you just love California life?
