Refreshing.

I'm longing for sunny days, shorts, blended drinks, outdoor bubble blowing, sidewalk chalk doodling, and colorful flowers in my garden. -It's all so refreshing to me.













I enjoy warmer days. Hummingbirds in the garden. Our daughter runs through the grass, and simply enjoys her time being a kid. I enjoy my time in my garden planting and pruning. Gathering up fresh vegetables, washing, and preparing them for our meals. -I miss all of this. The weather is still cold here in Colorado, but I'm looking forward to sunny days! -It's all just so refreshing.

    I'm looking forward to warmer days too. It hasn't been bad here at all, but still, it would be nice to go out in a short-sleeved shirt and maybe see a few butterflies!

    I can imagine that cold weather, while it can be snuggly and cozy, may be a little harsh at times. Sunny outdoor fun and blossoming flowers brings lots of joy. It's been colder here too and I am so pleased that the sun is out today! Stay safe and warm. Enjoy your day.

    Wow, I adore your pictures! So lovely! :) Here in New Brunswick Canada it does not look that nice outside. We have tons of snow, and it's cold. But looking at your pictures made me excited for spring!

      Melly, thank you. I really wish it looked like that here right now. We have been experiencing a bit of snow as well. I am looking forward to when my flowers are blooming again, and the sun stays out and warms us all. :) Thank you for stopping by.
