Sights of Spring

There is a tree around the corner from our house that I keep an eye on as the weather begins to change.  During our walks, I point this tree out to Luke and show him the green buds.  Seeing this tree blossom is truly my first sign that winter is finally, truly over, at least until December.  Getting the first whiff of these magnolia flowers really sets my mind for the renewal that is Spring.  Hope my neighbor didn't mind Luke and I taking these photos!

                                            In all their glory

                                            Al-l-l-most there


Under the Magnolia Tree



Open up and say Ahhh



Aiming up at the Sky

Now that Luke is 3 (my baby is 3! Wow!), there are new Sights of Spring in our life.  Here's the newest one:

                                        Vroom!


           Lukie on his brand-new scooter - Go, Lulie, Go! 
          Thanks Aunt Jen, Uncle Mike, Jenna and Michael!
                     
                               Happy Spring!

Thank you Bridget - I really appreciate the photography compliment, coming from a photo pro like you! When the pollen has us sneezing and sniffling, I will think of you and your pollen snow...ugh. Thanks for reading!

Thank you Elisa - a comment from Zurich, I'm so excited to see this! :) I feel the same way - are there magnolias in Switzerland?

Beautiful!! I grew up in a house with a magnolia tree right outside and so magnolias always mean spring to me.
