Rosie’s Whimsy

Sunday Recap

May 4, 2008 · 22 Comments

Another gorgeous Sunday!

A visit with family, gardening, and some bunny moving! What? Yes, bunny moving :-)

This is BunBun. She is an outside pet and has a nice bunny hutch. This summer we have moved her to some new digs….. a large dog crate. We can let her eat grass move her around daily. We’ll cover her up with an old blanket and give her an old terry towel to as a nest to curl up on at night.

Then we put together my new wheelbarrow and I moved about a dozen loads of bark mulch. I continued raking and clearing a path through the front woods.

Somehow all this took most of the afternoon and I decided to call it a day and see what might catch my eye with the camera.

Mountain Laurel

Abaca

Ajuga

White Spider in a Hydrangea

Bee in the Azalea Bush

Royal Paulownia Leaf Buds

Looking forward to a wonderful week. Hope you are, too! :-) Rosie

    Hi Rosie, I love your bunny. I have 2 indoor bunnies that have the house to run around in. They are both litter trained so it is wonderful, we don’t have to cage them. I was told that our domestic bunnies can’t stay outside like their wild cousins, they can’t handle the heat nor the cold like the others. Curious to know what kind of bunny your is that she can. We have been so hesitant to do that especially since it gets really cold in the winter and we have hawks. She is a gem and such a cutie! I wish I could just cuddle her and introduce mine to her…they would be great pals.

    We had wild bunnies playing in our yard this weekend. The male was definitely after the female, but she was having nothing to do with him.

    We laughed and laughed, and had so much fun watching them.

    Hi Rosie :)

    Are you making fun of little ol’ me? (insert fluttering lashes here) LOL The things I do for him… I could have used that beer you spit out.

    I love BunBun! It looks like he likes his new house. I want a bunny. Maybe I should ask hubby. He might agree, since he put me through the mud literally… yuk yuk.

    Beautiful pictures as always!

    Hugs and love,
    rue

    Your little grandchild will love BunBun! I sure do!
    I think Rabbit Run should have a pet bunny but Bill does not agree! *pooh*
    Your flowers and plants are all so pretty.

    Love,
    Sue
