Friday Flower Bloggin'

Early spring flowers in my southeast garden. Crocuses, te'te tet daffodils, and hardy primroses.

I had lunch with my friends, all sisters, Dottie, Rosie, and Alberta. I grew up with them. They lived two doors from us. The luncheon was at Dottie's church. Last year, the luncheon was a St. Patty's theme but this year it was a sports theme. I wore a jogging outfit and so did Dottie. Alberta forgot her St. Patty's outfit last year so she made sure she wore it this year. Dottie forgot to tell her it was a sports theme. It was a nice luncheon and there was enough roast beef left over so they sold it to us for $2.00 a container. It's a good thing because I didn't have anything to make for dinner.

The homeless shelter is being held at our church this week so there was no Fellowship dinner. I went to Bible study and then choir practice. One of the teenage girls who lives down the street from me joined our choir. I took her home so her grandmother didn't have to come back to get her. Her grandmother does a lot of the cooking for the fellowship dinners and last night she cooked for the homeless shelter.

The tree that has daisey like flowers is called a Star Magnolia. I saw one in my friend Joan's yard when we were going to Choral Society practice. Joan's family owns a nursery so she knew right away what it was. Her tree is quite large as it is an old tree. I will try to get a photo of John and Carol's tree. It is in full bloom now.

You would surely love the sights here outside Austin TX. The wildflowers are starting their yearly display. In two weeks we move more into the Texas Hill Country and by that time the bluebonnets will be everywhere. Fields and fields of purple.

We too have crocus in bloom and the daffodils are in full bud. Even found a primrose in bloom down in my wild flower garden yesterday. Can not believe the extremely warm weather we are having. Usually it is snowy and cold. Guess we should enjoy the warm weather while it is here. It could change tomorrow. Your flowers look beautiful Karol.
