Spring has Sprung


We went for a little photo shoot in Washington Park last weekend... Here is a picture of the first flower I saw this year! I can drive Kris crazy by telling him every little flower I find blooming in the yard each day, but I think its one of the things that I get most excited about in the spring. It was so beautiful this week. I'm sure that we will still have a few cooler days this year, but it was 75 degrees and so sunny Friday. So what did I do on my lovely day off? Plant some flowers and rake the lawn... I was trying to get a sun burn, but it didn't work.

We took our boat out on the water Friday afternoon. Now we are officially boaters. There was some fear that the canoe might be a little "tippy" but it wasn't. Its so nice - nothing quite like taking a canoe out on some peaceful water near sunset! We saw a few painted turtles sunning themselves on dead logs. Can't wait for the next warm day.

Ahh ... a girl after my own heart. :-) I have been doing the same thing as you -- telling Steph about all the flowers I see. She humors me pretty well -- thankfully. I am excited to do a little flower gardening in a few weeks!
