Hip Hip Peony!

I have so many peonies in the back and one finally opened up. It's beautiful! :) I can't wait for the rest to follow.

Also while walking the grounds this evening I noticed how big the hostas are getting. Really they don't look as big in this photo but believe me they are HUGE!!

And lastly, a few weeks ago we noticed an empty birds nest in our roses. This evening when I took a peek it was no longer empty. It is now the home of four huge blue eggs.
