looking at my garden upside down

Wow! I am actually going to try catching up!!!

Good grief! I had to go back and see when I last blogged!! Much too long ago. So much has been going on, now we are waiting for the new grandson to arrive, Jack Francisco Almaguer is not due to arrive until January 16th, but, we know he is too cute and is too wanted to wait. LOL.
The Dr. wants to bring him into the world a little earlier, so we just wait,,,,,,,,,and wait! Surprise is better I guess.... however, 2 hours away, is too far. We sure hope they will be able to come down for Christmas, if not we will go there. It depends on theDr.'s opinion.
Sarah and the baby are doing just fine, thank God, just being cautious.
In between last post and this, we had some good beneficial rain! It did wonders for the yard, plants that showed the strain of a long drought and heat, started blooming again (see pics). Now, Carol is faced with lots of leaves to rake and of course cutting back shrubs and canna's that were frozen this week. Endless yard work! I can't even sit out to supervise-too darn cold and windy----Texas weather!
