Yesterday was the loveliest of days. One of my dearest friends Adie joined Henry and me for a downtown stroll that ended in an impromptu tea time on a picnic blanket under a large shade tree. As we sat there, talking about this and talking about that, I was reminded yet again of how lucky I am to live where we live. As the sun shined down through the just-green branches, and the breeze lifted the edges of our blanket, I looked around and felt so grateful for this day, my friendship with Adie, and for the opportunity to be surrounded by such beauty. Henry lounged and laughed and stretched out, the sun warmed our faces, and our iced teas dwindled away. It was seriously such an amazing afternoon. I hope our spring is filled with a million more days like this in our little town, and I hope that wherever you are, spring is at least starting to show its face a little more.
Happy Friday!












Sounds like the perfect way to spend a lovely spring day! I love when the weather is perfect and you can while away the afternoon in utter bliss - sometimes we all need those effortlessly wonderful days to remind us how amazing life can be! Thanks for sharing and have a beautiful weekend!
ReplyDeletei cant wait until it feels like spring here! we are still in that chilly "april showers" mode. my softball games start next week so fingers crossed the sun peeks out soon.
ReplyDeleteLooks like a lovely day. You and Adie both look beautiful! I wish I could frolic in the sun today but it's still a little too cold here :)
ReplyDeleteDefinitely a great way to spend the day. Spring is such a beautiful time. As much as I love fall; spring is just as amazing to me.
ReplyDeleteOh and I just love Henry's little raccoon shirt.
Your dress is amazing as well. If you don't mind me asking; where did you purchase it from?
What a gorgeous day! I would love to be in Arizona right now. It's still a bit chilly and gray up here in Utah.
ReplyDeleteAnd Henry is adorable as usual : ) And getting so grown up!

Ahh I am SO jealous. Up here in Northern Illinois it hit about 39 degrees yesterday, and I was so mad! Your pictures are giving me hope for warmer weather <3
ReplyDeleteI also had a question, I was looking through your Flickr and fell in love with this dress! Where did you get it from?

Great way to spend an afternoon. We're still chilly on and off in good ol' Missouri, but I'm looking forward to the sunshine.
ReplyDeleteI did that same thing on Monday! I'm loving the green, green grass at the square these days. So nice.
ReplyDeleteSo, so pretty!!! That looks like a very amazing day! I need to get outside more but there aren't any parks nearby which really sucks!! :(

I am so ready for the weather around here to be that nice! Lovely photos!
ReplyDeleteWhat a beautiful representation of spring. I think we missed spring here in Florida, and went right to Summer.
ReplyDeleteThat seriously looks so amazing.
ReplyDeleteHenry is seriously so adorable :) I can't wait for days like that here!
ReplyDeleteI just now noticed your wedding ring -- it's lovely!
ReplyDeleteLooks marvelous! The grass here is still brown but it is warming up...
ReplyDeleteI had a day just like that yesterday but minus the baby and I couldn't have put it in better words myself!
ReplyDeleteUGH!! The weather there looks absolutely gorgeous. Even though it's FINALLY sunny in Chicago...it's like 45 degrees. And it's been raining all week. Okay, that's my rant - love the post and happy friday!!
