The flower fields in Carlsbad. The orange ones were my favorites.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

This reminds me of the poppy scene in The Wizard of Oz.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

My mom made a new friend at the Wild Animal Park. 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

They had a butterfly exhibit that we went to see.

Cherry blossoms.I really love these trees it reminds me of the movie Maytime and I have all these images of classic musicals set in Spring running through my head.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

We bought three more plants for the garden, this one being a Ranucula.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

We planted Tulip bulbs in December I think it was, they've just shot up after all the rain we've had.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Daffodils.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Kalanchoe. I had one of these in my apartment in Lueneburg, so this plant oddly enough reminds me of Germany.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

I just loved the contrast between the pink and yellow.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Went down to the pier last weekend and this pelican was sitting on top of the cafe.

They had a Vietnamese New Years celebration at my mom's school for the kids and I decided to go check it out. One of the dragons came to close to me and I got hit in the face with the head. But it was pretty entertaining.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Steven sent me a dozen roses for Valentines. He and my mom were emailing about it for a few days and keeping it a secret. The card that came with it made me cry.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

The weather was less than super today.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

This is hanging in our living room. 

 

These are outside my window.
