Because I Don’t Have a Photographic Memory (Part #31)

Beautiful! Thank you for sharing.

The weather is warming up, we have even had a taste of rain. I think the decision is final… we will have no more snow. We only have a few more weeks of school left, and that is a blessing. I am counting the days… Once I get out, the first thing we will do is go to the gardens. I have been dying to get back there and see all the beauty.

Today I share with you more photos from the gardens. These were taken some time last year. They still enchant me, after all this time. I hope they lend you a smile.

Grasshoppers, Butterflies, and Flowers, Oh My! (Post #5)

School is starting to wind down, or perhaps pick up – I’m never sure 🙂 The kids will be doing state testing the next two weeks so we will be driving back and forth to testing sites each day. The kids are going different days so we are going to have to juggle schoolwork and schedules. You would think it is a more relaxed time, but often it isn’t. Driving every day for that long and actually getting out the door on time is a struggle with 4 kids.

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…

Beautiful blossoms, a nice pick me up with snow still on the ground here.

Wow. It actually snowed yesterday but most of it has already melted. It was not that much snow, but I definitely feel the cold. Going to recharge my batteries with a few images from the gardens once again. They are my go-to cure and could not be more timely… Enjoy!
