My Giving Tree

I'm going to do something fun for the next year with my layout. Every season will get a new template. Since it's fall I found this great template! Now that it's up, however, I don't know if I like it. It makes all the pictures I upload transparent. Does anyone know how to fix this? Is it fixable? Also, the links to my friend's blogs are gone and I don't know how to get them back.......come back friends!
Nevertheless, here is "the giving tree."
(that's the name of the template)
Enjoy!

My Green Thumb

I think in fourth grade my Sunday school teacher had us plant seeds in a pot (probably to symbolize growth etc...), and then we could take them home and keep them!

After my "Moss Rose" grew out of the pot I transplanted it in our little garden. They have come back every year since then magically appearing in a different spot. Sometimes they're on the north side, or the planters by the garage--it's really quite strange how they hop around, but at least they come back!

The flowers were different colors (purple, orange, red, white), but now they're only pink and yellow.

So I just wanted to share with you guys my "Moss Rose" that has been at our house for 12 years!
