The First Roses of Spring for Twa Birthdays . . .

[lavendertook]

A very happy birthday to the Wee Master's poet true, my dear jan_u_wine. I hope it's been a day full of hobbity goodness that sets your muses singing. A rose for you on your day:








And this rose goes to our dear addie71:

I wish you a very happy birthday of hobbitish delights and may the Wee Gardner's blessings be on all your spring plantings.



Both these roses were the first blooms of spring last month opening before the rest on some glorious bushes beside the Youth Center near the lake. Those buses have outdone themselves this month prolifically.

And now I'll take you both on a walk around the lake last month:


These wild tulips bloomed in early April and grew by the bridge over the creek that feeds into the lake.








I dont' know what these wildflowers flowers next to the lake are.


Some elanor blossoms nestled among a mallorn's roots. I don't know what they call them in these parts.


You can see why elanor means star flower in Sindarin. May it bring you both lovely dreams. *hugs* <3

Celandines are some of my favourite wildflowers. Even their name is Elvish beautiful.

wow.......for once.....I sort of don't know what to say. That's a most beautiful compliment. Thank you.

I can almost smell that rose. And I can't believe all the lovely flowers you have growing there.

This is a lovely present indeed. Thank you, dear LT. Thank you!

Just the truth, ma'am. You're welcome.

I hope you had a lovely birthday weekend.

it's been very nice, although (as usual) i have not accomplished all i wished to. But that is my own lazy-arsed fault......

and tomorrow it is back to the Coal Mine. And i just know that all the Moria Orcs will be there in force.....

once more into the pits, dear friends, once more into the pits......

You're supposed to be lazy on your birthday, so get off my friend Jan's case, you! <3

*hugs* It's up early and to the vet tomorrow here.

wait. I don't HAVE an over-achieving twin.

OOOOOPS.

*hugs back*. Keep us posted on Vet 'Ventures! May all be well.

If there's any news, I'll let you know. We've just been having to check her blood values every 3 weeks in efforts to balance her; meanwhile her weight keeps dropping, but she's in good spirits and eating well.

Will be thinking of you both tomorrow. Give some extra skritchles for me!

[lavendertook.livejournal.com]

Will do. Thank you, hon.
