March of Dimes Walk...

This Sunday I walked for Team Talan in the March of Dimes-March for Babies Walk in Seattle. This was my first time doing something like this and it was a really positive experience. Thanks so much to those of you who donated to my walk, I really appreciated your support! With your help Team Talan raised over $2500.00 for premature babies everywhere! :) So here is picture overload from our 3.5 mile walk. An estimated 7,000 walkers participated in the event(wow!). Police closed the Alaskan Way Viaduct so we could walk on the freeway and the weather was perfect. My brother Chad is in town right now so he joined us for the walk too. Everyone had a great time walking for the cause and I'm looking forward to participating again next year.

Cherry Blossoms

One of my favorite things about Spring are the Cherry Blossom trees and their fluffy pale pink blossoms. When I was a kid we had several of these in our backyard and I first fell in love with them then. The first house Rob and I bought had one in the front yard near the street. I always parked under it and every Spring my car would be sprinkled with thousands and thousand of pale pink polka dots. Now we have one in our backyard and I love catching wafts of their sweet scent while I'm in the yard. Ahhh Spring....!

Welcome Spring!

So today marks the first day of Spring. And it was a wet one! We had showers off and on all day but I love this time of year. It smells so crisp and fresh outside and everything looks so green from all the rain. Time to get the yard ready, play in the dirt and plant flowers, put out the outdoor furniture... Now if only I could find someone else to do all the work... things would be perfect!

Winter in Spring...

It's March in Seattle, shouldn't it be raining by now? These are from Monday, it snowed about four inches at our place. I love the snow but I really hope this is the last of it. I'm ready for Spring.
