Busy, busy end of school


Ever have one of those weeks that you have all planned out way a head of time...then when the week begins you completely forgot that you had a zillion things to do?? That's been my week. I think the 3 day Memorial Day holiday weekend was what started me off on the wrong foot. Monday turned into Tuesday in the blink of an eye. 

 Tuesday I was a bit under the weather...allergies and such.
Wednesday was filled by inventory at the school library.


Yesterday I got to go to the Arboretum as a chaperon for Little J's class. I really love it there. We should really get a membership...but I digress.


The girls enjoyed the Japanese garden...


especially the koi.



I enjoyed a moment of quiet serenity myself. 




But we can't forget about the flowers...


















So many beauties. 
It was hard to choose which to share.



This was my favorite floral photo of the day.
Soft and dreamy...and pink!

Today will be my "catch-up" day. 
The team of fairies I wished for at the fountain never showed. A girl's got to dream, right?!?!

How are you preparing for summer?

    Oh your photos are dreamy and so beautiful and I enjoyed your narrative very much too Halle.

    Those pink Coral Bells are such a pretty flower and leaf...I am always amazed when I see hummingbird's at those tiny bells sipping nectar!

    You are lucky to have such pretty gardens near by

    spending more time on our back porch is a going into summertime ritual for us (read in a whisper...until the skeeters come to town!)
    so we are enjoying that...no big plans

    wishing you and yours a happy weekend!

    I really enjoyed this post. I think it is one of my favorites EVER. And of course, the flowers are truly lovely and you captured the girls in a very interesting (and private) way.

    Well let's see. I'm going to be cleaning up my yard mess in order to prepare for summer (grin). Thanks for your sage comment, too.

    My weeks just fly by at this point...sometimes I forget which month it is! LOL!

    Great pics...we went to see a Japanese garden on vacation. They are gorgeous!
