Spring has Sprung

This week has been much better as far as the weather is concerned. The seemingly never ending April showers have finally subsided and although still few and sparse, the May flowers are making their appearance.

I'm very much looking forward to the nicer weather that spring and summer brings, so I can get out and enjoy nature with my family. We love to go for hikes during the summer months and plan on hauling along our little guy on many of his first outdoor adventures.

We have one of those fancy backpack child carriers to try out.. we'll see how that goes. We're hoping he loves it, and I'm hoping it doesn't break my back carrying him. I guess we'll be sticking to the somewhat 'easier' trails for the next couple years.

TREES

There's something about trees that I'm drawn too.
So simple in their beauty... stoic, majestic
and undeniably vital to the rest of life on earth.
I see each tree as having their own personality, and I'm not
sure how that is conveyed... but it is.
