Viva Spring Break!

 

I love spring break. Its existence in the world makes me a happier person.

Proud parents

The Brady Bunch?

Trying again with the smiles

Nana and Benjamin

Nana, Banjo, & Poppy

Apparently smiling was not fun at this point

Patio

Newly planted flowers in the front

Roses reappear

Japanese maple wakes up after a long winter's nap

New blooms each day

My favorites while they last

Ready for their close up

Purple blossoms

To the park

Stop to say hello to the chickens

Swing

Swing 2

Using the grill for the first time in a while

Eating outside on such a pretty day

Yummy

A great way to end the week

After our big meal and the usual nighttime affairs, we ended our day on the back porch listening to music, looking at pictures, and reading stories under the glow of the porch lights.

...Just a few reasons I love this time of year.

Some moments are special. You don't need too many words to explain why. All you can do is pay close attention and hope that all the memories are being stored somewhere safe.
