Breathing In Spring

Friday found us at Tower Hill Botanic Gardens for a kids flower arranging class that Grace and her dearest friend Meaghan signed up for, and goodness what a perfect place to be that day! The flowers, the colors, the lemons, the oranges and the incredible scents were just what our souls needed at this point in the winter. It wasn't until we walked through the door that we realized how much we were in need of spring. It's been a long last month full of record breaking snow, cold, ice and ice dams (a few of which, sadly, are leaking into our sweet old farmhouse) and the inability to be outside due to subzero temperatures really is beginning to wear on even the most winter loving among us. Since it seems as if winter and all that goes with it will be hanging around for awhile longer I think we'll need to plan a few more trips to Tower Hill to help us pass the time as we wait for spring to truly arrive. xo
