Whee! Happy Day!

After I got home from work this morning, Kevin and I took our jar of change down to the bank to redeem. $100! He took me to brunch and then across the street to the nursery where he let me spend the entire amount on plants. Mostly some annual colors. No Chaste Tree but I'm not surprised. They didn't even have any purple coneflower.

Kevin also bought me a neat child sized chair made of birch. It'll be great in the garden with a pretty pot on it.

Then, as we pulled in the driveway, what did I spy but a large cardboard box on the porch! Woot! The iris got here and in wonderful shape. Thank you so much. I'm going to save the box for further swapping. The catalogs were terrific as well. I'm going to see of the Oakes perenniel catalog has some things I want.

All in all, a most garden day. Lots of planting to do in the morning!

I'll say Happy Day. I am delighted the iris are there and in good shape. Never having sent plants in the mail, I was not sure how they would ship. The chair sounds just too cute. Give Kev a big hug from me and tell him he is just the greatest for indulging my daughter in such a nice way. I definitely think he is a "keeper".
