Spring is in the air! Expect lots of photos of flowers in the next several weeks. I love taking pictures of flowers because, unlike two year olds, they stay still and are always willing to be photographed! They make my work so easy!

If eyes were made for seeing, then beauty is its own excuse for being.

Spring has sprung...and Molly has grown! How big does she look here? Seriously, she has grown so much. She can sing her ABC's, count to 12, sing songs, she knows her colors, and boy can she talk!

Springtime in Texas is best known for bluebonnet season. We went in search of some this past weekend...there were not too many in abundance, but we got some pretty shots in a field just covered with yellow wildflowers.

Every now and then, we found some bluebonnets. Love how this yellow flower stands out in the crowd.

And, who really cares about flowers anyway when you have a happy baby?

We will try again in a few weeks for more!

In an attempt to get somewhat caught up, I am totally bucking the system and posting 12 photos. They were all taken fairly recently, I have just been very busy working on finishing up my thesis, which is due for its defense a week from today!

So enjoy the pics, and I will keep trying to keep up!!

Most places would not allow for a trip to the park on a beautiful sunny day only two days after sleet and snow and freezing temps. We don't live in such places. We live in Texas. As they say, it's like a whole other country. So we went to the park today, two days after the freeze. And it was perfect weather for carefree swinging and sliding and laughing.

Here in the south, we call anything that even remotely resembles white stuff from the sky snow. Most would call this frozen slush. Many will ask what snow I am even talking about because you cannot really see it in these pictures. But it was there. And we were excited. And who doesn't love a cute kid in a winter hat? I know I do.

And, if this is not the cutest picture ever. Well, there is no if. Cause it is.

Valentine's Day is truly a day of love for me. Not only is it the day that Bobby and I went on our first date, but it is also the day that we welcomed Molly into the world. This Valentine's Day we got to celebrate her birthday with a ballerina bear themed party with family and friends back home. My friend Amie made the most adorable cupcakes for Molly, so I had to share a photo of them!

New Orleans weddings are unlike any other. Open bars, line dances, second lining through the reception hall. Not to mention the people. What better idea than to incorporate the NOLA tradition of Mardi Gras into a New Orleans inspired romance? That's just what our friends Mickey and Marie did for their wedding. These were the favors given out, so original!

And of course, I have to include a picture of the happy couple. I just LOVE the way she is looking at him in this picture. I hope that as they begin their new life together, they will always look at one another with that love in their eyes and the excitement of all that they will experience as a couple. Best wishes to you both!
