The Great Outdoors

Cute little Soph.





Our pretty tree.


I just love how all the colors of spring (grass, flowers & trees) are so bright and cheery especially after some rain.


My handsome guys. I just love this one!





My girl and I planting the flowers in the pots. We were both equally as excited to get out there and plant our pretty flowers. Sophie was a very big help to me this year!



Showing off our very dirty hands!

It hurts to walk on rocks without shoes on!
