Magnolia trees and more

This is the huge prickley pear cactus at the end of our driveway...and yes, the children learned the hard way...Don't Touch...but while mowing grass one day...I backed into it...and yes...pulled stickers outta my rear...LOL...
It has beautiful yellow blooms that seem to magically appear...this morning there were no blooms...this afternoon, lots of blooms and more to open soon...
The flowers almost look like they could be made from tissue paper...they are so delicate...
One of the barns behind the house...
another barn, this one still houses the tractors that the family uses...
Here is one of the magnolia trees outside out carport...its filled with blooms...
This magnolia tree is behind our house...
This is the pecan tree the kids play under...
This is a beautiful red bud tree...I have lots of bird feeder under and around this one...
This is the front of our home...We lost a few lantana's from last year...but I will replace them shortly...
