Let me start out by saying, Happy Valentines Day! ❤️ Normally, I would be planning a nice breakfast and dinner out for my sweetheart ❤️ But, instead we have a Winter Storm Warning ⛔️ and the snows already started. So, I got up early and went to the store for us and my Mom & Dad & Mother in law… Usually Kroger is a ghost town on Sunday Morning, but not today…
The old joke is to always run to the store at the 1st mention of snow to get bread and milk 🥛… Why? Maybe bread 🥖 pudding? Or French toast? A PB&J sandwich 🥪 always needs bread and a glass of milk. And, DON’T forget the TP 🧻 😃
No matter the weather, it’s still Valentines Day! ❤️ And I’m a blessed man to have a Valentine of my own! So dinners still on, it will be great too! Because I will be the chef 👩🍳
Here’s to all the Lovers out there! ❤️ Happy Valentines Day! ❤️
“A flower cannot blossom without sunshine, and man cannot live without love.”

Well, I hate to say “I told you so”…. But, Boom 💥 Brady won and won BIG! 💥 What a great, well played game! I’m not a big talker when it comes to football 🏈, but man, the pushback and BS I’ve gotten over my backing of the “old guy”… Vindication! I knew he and the Buccaneers had this in the bag 💼 They have become quite the team. They worked hard and won the prize. That’s something to be proud of! Hats off to the Bucs!
For me, as soon as Super Bowl Sunday is over – Monday morning starts my Spring preparation’s in earnest. I refer to it as Super Bowl Monday! Plans for the season, plant orders, clean up at the nursery, pond services get started as soon as weather allows, etc… The Nursery is open Wednesday through Saturday for your Gardening and Shopping pleasure. We have – Mulch, Top Soil, Sand, Gravel, Bulk Stone, Palletized Stone, Pond Supplies and much more available for purchase! Our new Boutique/Gift Shop is open as well! Gifts for any occasion are available, particularly, the upcoming Valentine’s Day celebration ❤️
We are putting together a list of Water Gardens & Koi Ponds to service right now, so feel free to give me a call to get on the Pond Maintenance Schedule – 731-424-2206.
PS: Our schedule is filling fast!
Football season is over! Now, it’s time for the real show to begin – The run up to Spring time in Tennessee!
Here’s to the coming Spring!

For the first time in years I slept past 8am on Sunday morning. It was good sleep 😴 but… Sleeping in, ain’t what it used to be 😊
Brunch is on!
Today is Super Bowl Sunday! Always a fun day! And a milepost in the seasons for my business! For Carter’s Nursery, Tomorrow is Super Bowl Monday! A day when we start LOTS of seasonal Landscape chores… So I got that goin for me 😊
Question- Who are you pulling for in the big game? For Jo and I, we got Brady’s team – The Buccaneers 🏴☠️ 🏈 The biggest reason, besides the fact that Brady is probably the best ever at his position (Quarterback), is that The night that Jo had our son Jacob, was the very night that Brady made his first mark on the NFL winning a snowy game against The Raiders to move forward into the Super Bowl – His 1st. Super Bowl win! Can you say “Tuck Rule”… 😳. She laid there, in labor, and watched the entire game with me! At times of serious pain, she would ask, what’s going on? What’s the score? How’s Brady doing? A football 🏈 fan was born! And, a beautiful, bouncing baby boy to boot! Boom💥 Yes, that’s 6 B’s in a row! Thank you, thank you very much!
No matter the outcome of today’s game though, we will have fun watching it!
Have a great Sunday! And, Go Bucs!🏈💥

Saturday nights have changed a bit over the last year… A little less exciting… A little less, well, everything. Until tonight! We finally got to make up for a couple of cancelled vacations and more. We got to go to … Paris! 💥
We even got to eat the most famous of all Parisian foods… Yep, catfish!
I hope your Saturday night was as exciting as mine!
Have a great evening 😊

Throwback Thursday pictures have gotten to be one of my favorite things about Thursdays 😊 Looking back at fun times with family and friends, what’s not to smile about. Like this one. Kids just LOVE my Nursery! They feed the Koi, they pet the animals, and find all sorts of cool critters in the gardens.
This was my pick for the first #Throwbackthursday of February 2021. Feel free to share a throwback of your own today!
Have a great one!

What a beautiful, sunny morning! 🌞 It’s Groundhog Day! Guess what… I saw my shadow! You know what that means, yep, I need to loose a few pounds…
Old Punxsutawney Phil saw his shadow this morning as well… What does that mean? Well, if you trust the worlds most famous rodent prognosticator, it means 6 more weeks of Winter 🥶
Folks, no matter what the weather rat 🐀 says, Spring is still March 20th. this year no matter what! And that’s good with me! That means I still have time to get all the February chores done. Still time to enjoy a fire or three with my family. Still time to enjoy the pre-Spring landscape – Before Spring really hits! To me this is a reminder – Spring is Coming! Rejoice & Be Happy! 😉

This year already seems to be in high gear 🏎 tomorrow is February 1st! Wow 😳 That means Tuesday is Groundhog Day… The halfway point till official Spring ☘️ I don’t know if it was the restrictions of last year, but I already have the worst case of “Spring Fever” that I remember!
”It’s spring fever. That is what the name of it is. And when you’ve got it, you want—oh, you don’t quite know what it is you do want, but it just fairly makes your heart ache, you want it so!

Have a great Sunday!
