capturing spring

This afternoon I was busy putting a dinner together for somebody, when one of my little somebodies kept calling for me to join her out in the backyard.

I wish it didn't take as much coaxing on her part to get me out there. Once I did, I quickly decided we needed to document the spring fever taking over our yard. And mind you, I have absolutely nothing to do with it. It was planted before buying the house, and just all blossoms on its own. I love our backyard. Love it. Snowball bush with blossoms bigger than my fist meant A & I had a snowball fight. And then spent time cooling off under the tree canopy covered in flowers.

p.s. Miss A is pretty proud of her mad skills as a photographer (see pic of me above helping her hold the camera as she took it.)

Time spent in the backyard is worth putting up with our less-than-humongous home, if I do say so.
