Gardening can be a Mystery

I love to garden, but sometimes I don't think my garden loves me back! Do you ever feel that way? You try and try to get your plants to do well and they just don't want to cooperate. 

I talk to them, I baby them and still no luck. They are OK, but not doing fabulous. Do your plants do this to you? 

I like to think I have a green thumb, but sometimes I think it is only half green!

Over The Moon

Happy 4th of July Weekend and Welcome to the Over the Moon party. Hope you are having a wonderful weekend with family and friends and just enjoying your time. I love love for you to stop by and share your posts with us.

Welcome to the Over The Moon Link Party #30

4th of July Camping Decor

I love decorating for the 4th, do you? We are camping but that doesn't mean I can't decorate our campsite. Right?

I tried to make items that would travel well and not take up too much space. 

We had a palm tree right beside our campsite that was the perfect spot to place my 4th of July decor.
