Ahhh Spring, you can feel it in the air, finally. Before you know it the magnolias a cherry trees will be blooming. I can hardly wait! I love to bring flowers into my home as often as I can.

It’s beginning to feel like spring inside, now if only the weather would cooperate.

We have the most beautiful ornamental grasses scattered throughout our yard. I love them. We chose to add them as we went along for the beautiful rustle they make in the warm summer breeze while also looking very striking in comparison to the snowy white backdrop of winter.

It wasn’t until a few days ago that I realized I should cut some and bring them indoors to add a touch of fall to a vase. They make such a beautiful display that I don’t know why I didn’t think of this sooner
