My Mother's day Flowers

We bought two hanging baskets today for Mother's Day. They are a kind of petunia called Million Bells. Smaller, but very hardy and prolific. And you don't have to deadhead. However, I guess I can't leave them outside for awhile. I wonder if we'll get a May snow this year???

This is a video of swallows checking out our birdhouse - our favorite sign of spring. I'm not happy with the quality of the video. It plays smoothly on the camera, but not on our computer. I've downloaded the latest Quick Time. Any suggestions?

flowers are perfect on mothers day! Even if they have to stay inside for a while! :)
