An Evening in the Orchard

0 · Jul 21, 2014 ·

Spring brings a magical time when blooms are all about.  I love finding excuses to drive by the orchards in all their flowering glory.  The cherry orchards might just be my favorite as they remind me of my childhood trips to Grandma’s house but just about any flowering tree will bring a smile my my face.

This year I promised myself that I would have more pictures taken.  I want to capture moments in life before they fade away.  I want to remember Gretta’s spiky pigtails, how she hated to wear shoes (but loved to carry them around) and the way her eyes light up every time she sees her daddy.

Back in May these two things collided.  My friend Kellie so graciously offered to spend a evening in a blossoming apple orchard and help me preserve a piece of my life.  Thank you Kellie.  Now the challenge is to pick my favorites to hang on my walls.
