Winter arrangement

 
Update on the "winter arrangement" I created for our porch - here's the finished product!   I bought two bunches of mixed evergreen branches at a local hardware shop, as well as some very colourful branches from Sheridan Nurseries. 
A detailed view....
Even kitty cat was in the holiday decorating mood....

Winter arrangements

Check out this cool winter container arrangement I saw ay Sheridan Nurseries today.... Love the orange and green combination!   This totally inspired me to get some plant materials myself and attempt an arrangement for our place..... Stay tuned for updates!!

Fall bouquet

Probably last bit of blooms from the backyard this year - a few surviving pansies from the backyard planter which I cleaned out.  Fall yard clean up is going pretty well (at least in the backyard):

* mow grass
* cut down daylily and hosta plants
* cut down / pull unwanted plants
* raked leaves
* fertilize perennials

Now I got a few more things to do at the front yard... hopefully we can get a few more mild days in the upcoming week or two! :)

Visitors

Some fun visitors in the back yard last week....
The white cat with dots has been frequent visitor in our backyard and front yard.... (he/she is a bit shy)... 

And a beautiful blue jay.... I hope it will come back again - it's absolutely gorgeous!
