Last weekend in April already.

Did I mention that youngest boy is living with us now? Pretty sure I did. It's been working out well so far.

All of our apple trees (all 3) have bloomed now. Now to wait and see if they bear any fruit. They are only two years old though so I won't be too broken hearted if they don't.
However, the fig tree we planted doesn't even have any leaves yet, so I am thinking we need to toss it and buy a new one!

I found out that grape vines, especially when young, don't like humidity.... All we mostly have in Louisiana is humidity. I showed these photos


to Stark's on FB, and they said a copper fungicide would help to keep the rest of the leaves and possible grapes from turning brown like these did.

We have a wren living in the garage. She built a nest in hubby's cabinet because everything is neat and he keeps the doors closed behind a can there.
I don't like to bother it because I don't want her to abandon her babies; but you can just barely see one, or maybe two, if you look at the center of the nest.


We may get some bad weather down this way. And off to the East. But it may start in the Midwest. Hope you all have a SAFE, Blessed weekend where ever you live. ♥

  2. Our figs have not started to leaf yet either. I might wait.

    I am glad you have an extra pair of hands and another loving heart with you.

    Watch the weather!
