Tyler Texas

We left Charlotte's Saturday  and drove to Carrel's son, Johnnie's house in Tyler Texas.  This is his wife, Janelle, she is a Dr. of pharmacy.  Janelle works at a clinic in Tyler.  Johnnie is over the lunch room at Whitehall school.  The dog in the picture is Bella.  The boy is Emerson a very active and smart young man.  Johnnie and Janelle are  teaching them about God and to be very polite.  We think they are doing a wonderful job. 

This young lady is Jessica Carrel.  Carrel is a family name handed down through the generations.  Carrel has always been a boys name.  Johnnie and Janelle changed that to a girl.  This may be the end of this name you never know what the future generations will do.  I like the idea of handing down a name for generation.

 
This neighborhood does not have many regular flower beds the yards are more formal than mine and Charlotte's.  Johnnie   does have a rose tree and some bulbs but they were not in bloom when I was there.  The Iris on the left was blooming in my yard when I returned. It is still blooming.  Below is what I had blooming when I returned home.  I am always glad to get home.

My camellias were still blooming when I returned.  One is still blooming.

The Lavender had begun to bloom.

This is a bulb that comes up every year in Carrel large bed.

 This is the inside of the white Iris.  I really like the inside when they open enough for me to get a good view.

 Carrels Play Boy rose.
