may flowers

april showers bring may flowers

the afternoon after our 6th gbaby was born

we had the sibs outside in their backyard

for a rip n run

spring in chattanooga was abloom

the white peony above was my favorite

 

the bulbs were blooming in profusion

 OH MY!!!

the beautiful backyard patio

climbs upward to a huge wooded area

even the gkiddos were feeling it

the big huge bumbees were gathering goodness

it seemed a perfect celebration for the

arrival of a new baby sister

 

 a happy play spot

jordan was so happy this day

she was skating and singing
