Spring Pick Me Up

for all of you that are experiencing the drearier side of spring, here are some reminders of why spring is good...

the view of the bright spring sky when lying with your child under a large oak tree...
the discovery of tiny buds in the bushes...
and what they will become once they open...
now, mother nature (if you are listening) can you sprinkle these kind of days into the dreary days a little more liberally?? it is difficult to be stuck inside with two kids for more than a couple consecutive days. please and thank you.

beautiful shots C. So much for global warming eh? Spring seems kind of slow arriving for many of you guys!

Awesome post, Carey! Totally gorgeous shots and lovely reminders. Hey, pack up those kids and head on down to Texas. Enjoy the nice days we're getting there now, and we'll head back your way in a month when it's sweltering here. :o)

Glad Spring is coming to your part of the country. It's SO nice to get outside with the kiddos!

The perspective of the tree is awesome! It'll be summer before you know it!

i am so copying your idea of lying under a tree and just shooting up! that is so wicked cool. i love it.

i'm glad you guys are getting some spring. after our 2 100+ day stretches? today it is a dismal 62. WHAT is going on?? I tell you.

These are AWESOME!

I totally agree with you -- once you get even a little taste of that gorgeous spring weather, it's hard to tolerate all the rain that comes with it!
