There’s something reassuring about seeing a man walking down the sidewalk or riding the subway with a bouquet of flowers in his hand. It reminds me that chivalry may not be dead after all. 
I wonder to myself if those are “I’m sorry” flowers or “Happy Birthday” flowers or “Just Because” flowers. I think about the lady who will get to enjoy seeing those flowers in her living room for the next couple days and the feeling she’ll get knowing that someone was thinking of her.
someday.

what a difference the weather makes

Spring has truly sprung and I couldn’t be happier! My shorts, t-shirts, and I have been outside as much as possible lately. I’ve also had my camera along for the ride…thanks goodness!

My poppop has always had the best garden!

I don’t even know where he finds these things

I fell in love with these mason jar glasses at this restaurant!

I’m sure there will be many more photos of sunny times to come. It just feels so invigorating to be outside again.

Spring-

-has tried to sprung! Last week the sun came out, the temperature picked up, and the snow melted away. The earth was mud covered but I could have cared less. It was so nice just to breathe warm air again and shed the winter coat. And best of all…flowers began to bloom. Nothing makes me happier than seeing the first Impatience start to poke their purple heads out of the ground. It almost makes all that snow and dreary winterness worth it…almost.

Impatience growing in my Poppop’s garden!

Just look at those happy little flowers! Trying their darndest to bloom and bring joy to the world! I love ’em. Sadly though, only days later, the snow returned to WNY and buried all the pretty flowers. Such is the bi-polar month of March. But it means that Spring is trying and will soon be here in full swing. I. Can’t. Wait!
