Some (mostly) pink pictures

I've taken these over the past few weeks. The flowering trees and bushes are so beautiful. Spring if my favorite season; second only to Fall. :)

This is one of the pretties bouquets I've seen in a long time.

Just look at those flowers!!!!

LOVE!!!

I found this canvas at Kudzu Antiques a few weeks ago.

She's (of course she's a "she"...she's PINK!)

hanging on the wall of my little downstairs living room.

I've named her "Bossy", after the restaurant

where my grandmother worked when I was a little girl.

It was in Sequin, Texas and was called "Ole Bossy".

They had THE best ice cream! :)

Bossy hangs right next to this new-ish daybed from West Elm.

I'm loving all the bright pillows that I've collected since I've lived here

and how well they go with the Anthropologie

bedspread I got on sale last year. :)

This was last Sunday on my landlord's deck.

They had a HUGE (over 200 people) birthday party.

(this was during set-up)

I didn't take many pictures because there was a professional photographer

there and I'd have felt silly with my little camera.

I took these with my phone.

That's my little house in the background. :)

I lent some of my vases and decorative items

to Laura for the party.

This is one of my little Crate and Barrel vases

with Camellias in it. :)

This is a little street around the corner from my house.

Gracie and I walk under this bower of pink flowering trees everyday.

Those beds were filled with tulips.

I thanked the owner for planting so many for us to enjoy. :)

I adore being a Nanny.

One of the perks is doing crafts like this.

Personally I think I could wear these chunky bead necklaces out

and no one would know that a 3 year old and I made them.

Well...maybe they would.... ;-)

We like to do sidewalk chalk art.

I know my "skills" are

rudimentary at best.

But the children enjoy it.

....and participate: see those "suns"? :)

Now for some more of the best parts of my job:

we go for nature walks.

Here at this small nature preserve right behind their little subdivision.

It's absolutely beautiful.

My pictures don't do it justice.

I mean....really....look at that.....

...and here's the non-pink:

lovely white flowering tree in a yard that borders

the nature preserve.

Happy Sunday!!!!!!
