Exploring My Backyard with the Boys!

I wanted to break up my routine and I haven't taken any pictures in a long while.  Probably since my trip to Wisconsin. So I went exploring in my backyard. It's really amazing that you do not have to go far from home to capture some beautiful images. I haven't picked my camera up in a long time, other than to take my Etsy Shop product pictures because I felt like I always have to go somewhere in oder to have a photo shoot. Anyway, here are the images I took with my dogs in tow.
 I have had this Aloe plant for about 6 years now. It was a tiny little plant when it was gifted to me but now it's nearly growing out of it's pot!
 Cheechie under the big tree.


 Kooper sitting pretty for the camera. He is so handsome!
 Banana are starting to grow on my trees!
 Musa flower on my Banana Tree.

 The natural palm thatch work.
 A little bug landed while I was capturing this one!
 My dad conveniently lives next door and he built this wooden trellis walkway in his side yard. Here you can see it peeking over his fence. I need to buy him some ivy seedlings so we can plant them and take over. It will be so beautiful!
 This little guy was growing out of a tree stump! It's amazing where life manages to thrive!
 The trees are starting to flower.
 Black and white tree trunk!
 Peek-a-boo I see you!
 Really cool black and white image. I tried to edit it so that it took a minute to figure out what it might be if you were looking at this picture all by itself. Here you can see that it is similar to the image above.
 The neighbors flower bushes are growing through the fence, but I don't mind one bit!
 Hibiscus plants flowering in the sun light.
 Close up.
I love my cactus!
Cheech loves to sunbathe!

I hope you enjoyed my pictures! I hope to make my backyard even more beautiful soon and cannot wait to share it with you!
