Iulie in Spring

First, a visit to the sycamore. It is more than twice her height now.

Then a walk by the river with moonshine.

Grandpa loves this.

Slightly-belated Easter with Iulie

Leave a comment

The Easter bunny did make an appearance.

There were baskets to discover and eggs to find!

After the hunt, we enjoyed the beautiful weather outside and made chalk pictures of our own.

Don’t forget to count the loot!

Now who exactly is the Easter bunny again?!

We also dyed some eggies. The girls from the palace were happy to oblige.

Even the puppy was pooped!

But a good night’s sleep after several stories got us all rested up for pancakes in the morning.

The eggs became deviled.

While the angel checked on her tree. (Tiny tiny leaves.)

We also tiptoed through the bluebells. Well kinda.

Come again, little one.

The walk by the river gets better every time we do it.

 

Bluebells 2024

This year, the bluebells first started leafing up out of the ground on March 1st.  And on the 24th the peak was beginning.  Early early.

Good thing global warming is not real.

This is Maybeline’s first bluebell season.

Bluebells Peak April 2, 2023

It’s early for the peak.  But the peak it is along the banks of the Shenandoah.

Romey looks like a bluebell too.

Moonshine does not look like a bluebell.  Nor does he smell like one.

There are also other flowers available.
