Grandma's Iris

Back in 2003 when my grandmother passed away my mom went to her house before it was sold and dug up a bunch of her flowers and somehow I ended up with quite a few iris'. Over the years they've really taken off and each spring I get more and more blooms. This year when they bloomed I was really excited about this purple one, it reminds me of grandma.

Bonney said...: Irises remind me of my grandmother also. I remember her walking me in my stroller to a house several streets away from ours. The man that lived there had his whole front yard planted with irises. Because my grandmother was very patient with me, I was always very quiet while she drank it in before we moved on. Thanks for reminding me of those times!; 10:30 AM, May 28, 2010

About Me

Name: Carrie

Location: Minnesota, United States

I am a 30-something dental hygienist living in MN with my Weimaraner Casey, and missing my Boxer Flea. My husband Kyle is my best friend. I drive a 10 year old truck and a 9 year old motorcycle. My brother is currently serving in the US Air Force stationed in New Mexico. I love Rice Krispie bars, all things Tangerine/Mandarin Orange and Pistachio, Peanut M&M's, caramel, Jelly Bellys, comfortable shoes, cowboy/rodeo fabric, warm blankets, handmade quilts, soft pillows, really good chocolate and lazy days. I dislike litterbugs, dry hands, burned popcorn, slow drivers, below zero days and poor service & dirty silverware at restaurants. I'm currently enjoying my new Android phone, working on my UFO's and reading Recalculating on my nook. I'm looking forward to Christmas!
