Harleigh is off to driver's ed class (had it Friday and Saturday as well, and goes back in two weeks for another full weekend of class) and so it's been sorta quiet around here. Beautiful weather after yesterday's rainy day, but the rain made for easier digging. Planted two Juddi Viburnum, one in the backyard and one out front in the bed closest to the front door. They're supposed to smell divine and grow rather large (8' x 8'). I need to start filling in the front beds of the house, and large plants like these fill in space, look pretty, smell pretty, and will limit the number of annuals I have to plant to give the house some curb appeal.
My clematis has climbed up the rainspout and I'm training it across the porch by simply putting a line of hooks under the overhang. It's starting to drip with blooms and should be quite the showpiece very soon.
This doll quilt came in the mail a few days ago, an impulse purchase on Ebay, fueled by all the talk of
Holly Hobbie. Our rumpus room is sort of a mishmash of girl stuff and so I might do some rearranging on the walls and hang it in there.

That doll quilt is so cute! I've never had any luck with clematis. Mine usually wind up dying at some point in the season.
