The Monthly Bloom

January



The crocuses and camellias bloomed a little bit early this year. I took these photos back in January, though I'm pretty late posting them here, which means I've completed a year's worth of monthly blooms! My first monthly bloom post was last February. I'm a little sad to be wrapping up this series, but I know I'll be revisiting it often here, just not as monthly:) Our yard is so beautiful now, with pink, white, yellow, orange, purple,  and red all a bloom! And a beautiful new wooden fence is now in process in the back yard! I can already tell it's going to make such a difference back there and provide a much improved backdrop to our lovely blooms. I'll keep you posted!

the cuteness competition

from January:

What's so entertaining, Abe?

"Oh, just these crazies...


on my lily pad with me."


Just a typical Saturday morning with our 2 month old and 3 yr old.


Lulu's having to step up her game with this tough cuteness competition.


She wants to make sure we know she can smile on command.


"Mom, are they really always this silly!?"
