wordless wednesday

Sorry I’ve been MIA the last couple weeks! I needed a little blogging break to start out the Summer- hope you didn’t miss me too much. 😉 It’s Shark Week on the Discovery Channel, so I had to share a few pics of the sharks we saw at the National Aquarium!

The Husband and I spent Easter Sunday at his grandparents’ house in New Jersey. This really lovely bush/tree/something-or-other outside their home was in full bloom. It had the prettiest pink flowers ever, so I had to take a few shots of it!

I bought a dozen peach roses when I went to the Philly Flower Show a few weeks ago. They’ve all wilted and bit the dust one by one, but this solitary rose in it’s own little vase by my mom’s photo is holding strong! Isn’t it lovely!?

Remember a few weeks back when I visited Longwood Gardens? I snapped this gorgeous photo of hot pinkish purple-y cyclamen in the Conservatory and I’ve been waiting to share it! I love the white/silver succulents they paired them with, too. It really makes them pop!

It’s Wordless Wednesday, and also Woman Crush Wednesday, so why not do both?! Here’s a pic of Mabel, stealing the new stool I bought for my art table! My back hurts when I’d use my old one so I finally got around to getting a comfier one. I even bought a nice pillow this time. Mabel approves, and I haven’t had a chance to sit in it yet as it’s her new favorite spot!

I went on a trip to Longwood Gardens last week to check out the Christmas displays before they were over. I’ll share a recap tomorrow with lots of photos from my trip (it was so pretty!) but I’m sharing my fave pic today! I took this one in the Conservatory right after some of the plants were sprayed with water.
