pancake picnic
Oh man, it was the most gorgeous day here today. The kind of day that makes you feel so lucky to be alive. It was warm, (unseasonably) the breeze was just the perfect little wisp, and the birds were singing up a storm. Noah and I had the morning alone together and the spontaneity of a picnic on the patio was the perfect thing. I almost sat us at the table before I realized that a day like today should not be wasted one little bit with being indoors! Later in the day I was thinking how good it is to be spontaneous. Some of life's sweetest memories are created because one was willing to seize the moment. My hope is that I will always be one to snatch a moment when it comes and make it a sweet memory. Like a pancake picnic.
~Love to hear about your pancake picnic. Sounds yummy. You should see the amount of snow we still have up here in NB, Canada. Doesn't look like picnic season up here for at least 2 to 3 more months. LOL Your morning together sounded wonderful. Have a great rest of the weekend. <3

The picture is beautiful, and I guess te moment was, too. I'm longing for spring these days, that's such a lovely time of the year!

Those are the days when I look at Brian and say, "Do you have that feeling?" And he says, "Yes. Yes I do." And then we breathe deeply.

Lovely scene! I am listing to the wind - it's 40+ mph, and the temperature is 8 degrees, and thinking I want to beam myself into that pretty,dreamy, sunny world in that photo!

Your picnic looks lovely! I hope my weather warms up enough to do something like that.

How wonderful. I can't wait until we have warm days so we can go on a picnic.
LOVE the striped sock in your banner. Shoes are cute too.
