Beautiful Flowers a wonderful reminder of Spring

We are finally on break.  It is so nice to not have to do anything.  Well, as much as a mom of four does not have to do anything 😉  Today I am sitting contentedly at my computer, looking through some old photos.  Yesterday I relaxed and wrote a few poems (and I have not been able to do it as much as I would have liked lately).  We were supposed to go somewhere on this break, but after realize how much time would be spent in the car traveling and how much time would be spent enjoying, we have decided to stay home.

The kids and I are going to act like tourists in our own city.  We are going to spend lots of time at the gardens, enjoy the zoo, visit the art museum… the list goes on on (I hope).  If truth be told, vacations are rarely…

We went up to the mountains yesterday and I captured some beautiful images.  The sky was a brilliant blue and gorgeous clouds swept across the sky.  We even found some flowers blooming and tree buds starting to appear.  In one location, we found a dogwood tree with lovely flowers.  Oh, my heart skipped a beat!

I had been checking my photos on the camera on the way home, but when I put the card into my computer – all images were lost.  So, I guess you will have to take my word for it – it was beautiful!  Hoping to go to the gardens this week, so perhaps I will be able to capture some lovely images there.  I will keep you posted 🙂
