A few moments to be remembered from this last week...
{our view of the sunset from our backyard--it just makes me want to sit back, relax, and take deeper breaths!}
{dairy queen peanut buster parfaits in honor of my mom's birthday (her favorite dessert!)}
{i got tired of my dark roots and had my hair darkened... no more blonde! at least for now. :) }
{my dad gave me some cuttings from his crab apple tree--gorgeous blossoms, aren't they?! the moment miss j saw me with my camera in front of them she hopped in the photo. isn't she a crack up?!}
{notice the little tears in her eyes? moments before this shot she had been crying over something (who knows what!) but stopped the tears and traded them in for a smile--perhaps I should pull the camera out whenever she starts pouting! :) }
{i grabbed this clematis while there, too. i tell ya, coming home from my dad's is like coming home from a farmer's market--my car was filled with flowers, fresh cut asparagus, a dozen eggs, and pottery (garden art that i bought and made years ago but haven't had the place to put until now!) thank you, dad, you are the best!}
(p.s. post edit--sheesh--I can't believe I posted this without making any mention of the bombings in Boston and the drawn-out manhunt for the suspects. My heart goes out to all those affected from the attack, and I pray for emotional and physical healing for the victims' families and those that were injured. And I and left in such awe after reading about the many heroic helpers that stepped up in a time of such need. My sister reminded me of the Mr. Roger's quote that has become popular the last little while: "When I was a boy and I would see scary things in the news, my mother would say to me, 'Look for the helpers. You will always find people who are helping.' " Such a powerful reminder that there are still so many good people in this world... a reminder that I definitley needed this week.)
xo,
