Mums

In the spirit of the season I got some mums!!!

Remember from spring to summer...well from summer to fall!  The summer annuals were D-U-N and needed to be thrown out.

 

The back stoop came out quite nice.... ...I am really loving that little cabbage. I kept one herb pot since it still had some life in it. All we need now is a pumpkin!

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

As for the front, that is a differerent story....I knew they wouldn't be amazing, since I didn't want to spend the money to make them amazing, but I figured they would be ok...

At first glance, not so bad, certainly an improvement from something that is dead...

 

But look at little closer and I have lived up to the title of my blog....

They are way too small and one of them broke while I was planting it!!!! So sad! Colin said no one was going to walk by and say, "that ladies mums are undersized" but I said someone might!!! Perhaps he said it to make sure I didn't go out and buy more! : )

 

Just keeping it real around here! At least you can't really tell from the street since all you see is a pop of bright yellow so it will just have to do!
