This little vase of yellow ranunculus is like sunshine in a vase, yes? I just love them and really really want to plant my own so that I can pick them for myself next spring.

Speaking of spring . . . I think . . . just maybe . . . it’s finally here! Hooray! And hooray for the weekend, too.

Look! A photo of Jackie! He’s always on the move unless he’s sleeping or being read to so the other night when we visited and Dale was reading to him I snapped some quick photos. I just love that little face!

I love the weekend, too. Make it a good one.

A tulip from Bryant Park in New York City. I love that in the middle of all that concrete and traffic there is a lovely reminder to bloom where you’re planted.

Have a great weekend, friends!

Today I want to show you amaryllis number three: Double Dream.

She’s a showstopper! I adore the color and just look at all those petals. I don’t say this very often but this is a photo you want to click and enlarge – it’s worth it.

Too bad we can’t enlarge the weekend, huh? Make the most of the time you have!

While the white amaryllis continues to bloom (I’m now on blossoms 3,4,5 & 6!), Rosalie is now also in bloom. I adore the pale pink petals and vibrant green center of this variety. It’s delicate and lovely and perfect for spring.

And speaking of spring . . . it’s spring break! Dale and Hannah are both off from school next week and I’m taking a few days off as well. We’ll be enjoying what I think is our first ever vacation with just the tree of us. New York City here we come! Our plans include Hamilton, To Kill a Mockingbird, the Tenement Museum, Color Factory and whatever else inspires us. I won’t be blogging but I encourage you to follow our adventures on Instagram if you’re so inclined.

I’ll be back before you know it!
