Oh Koi!

Mother's Day weekend had us out at Como Park & Zoo ~ One of my favorite places...The weather wasn't cooperating though and it was just too darn cold!
BRRR ~

So instead of watching the animals for very long ~
We watched the Koi swim around instead ~








It was nice and warm in the conservatory but the flower show was too new and a bit disappointing...maybe we'll head back soon and see if THEIR lilies have opened up yet...
This is how they all looked when we were there...

:(





Ours at home are coming along quite nicely too - even after the whole light bulb incident!!

See?



Ok, so maybe you can't...but you will! Just you wait! The kids and I planted 50 Stargazers and over 100 Gladiola Bulbs! They really are peeking through the dirt (the dirt that looks about a billion years old! ACK! Time for another trip to the Home Depot!)
