Welcome to “Show and Tell Friday!” Do you have something special to share with us? It could be a trinket from grade school, a piece of jewelry, or a treasured collection. Look around your home for something to share; dig through those boxes in your closet if you have to! Share photos and the story that goes with your special item.
Hello! Today, I am finally sharing pictures of our finished fence. It was well worth the 10 year wait!
I especially love the top of our gate. Phillip drew the design for them to cut, and it came out perfectly.
I've had the afternoons to myself this week, so I've spent some time in the gardens.
I planted my first Delphinium...
Hydrangea...
And yellow Lantana.
Thank you for taking a look around our yard. I'll share more next week. Have a wonderful weekend!

The fence is so pretty and I love the flowers, especially the delphinium.I have never seen one up close. I meant to tell you that I am sorry you lost the lovely tree that your children loved. I know how one can get attached to trees like that. Daddy brought dogwoods from the woods to plant when I was little. We all cried when they died many years later. They were a part of his love for nature and our Creator. Blessings, Sarita

What a beautiful fence, and I love the unusual carving on the gate - so much more interesting.
Interesting to see your flowers too. I still only have 3 blooms on my hydrangea, and they are the blue shade.
Gorgeous flower shots! You need to make pretty note cards out of those photos!

WHAT A BEAUTIFUL FENCE! You must be so pleased. Your flowers are gorgeous as well, especially the yellow Lantana. It looks like primrose, not knowing the scale of the flowers.
Just lovely Kelli...I can see you in that beautiful garden.
Can't wait to see the whole garden.....
Kelli, The fence is perfect. It must be beautiful as a backdrop for your garden. Jean
I love the fence. It looks very tall and private. The cut out is so pretty. I like the fact that the gate is like a door.

Enjoy that beautiful fence -- I particularly love the yellow lantana!
I love flowers! Your garden is just beautiful.
I messed up my first Linky post, so I did it a second time assuming that you'd delete the first one. I'm sorry; I was trying to highlight the box and got the Submit button instead.
How nice the fence and gardens are! The detail on the gate is just lovely and how special that Phillip drew it himself. Just makes it so personal to your family. Love your flowers too. Hydrangeas are a favorite of mine.
God bless,
Mrs.T

The fence came out so well! Love that little design of Phillip's. And the flowers are beautiful.
How very beautiful! I do love the doorway to pieces!
I planted delphinium seed earlier this year. I don't see them coming up yet and am wondering if the will. I know perennials by seed can be pretty contrary.
Your fence is fantastic! Oh how beautiful and fun to be out working in the yard surrounded by a work of art! Enjoy it!
really wonderful fence and gate!
Oh no, I didn't know that our posts had to be about gardens this week!
Kelli,
Your fence is really handsome. The wood is superb and cutout above the gate is just the right decorative touch.
It seems that the fence was very well installed.
