springtime

we just got home from a wonderful week in sunny arizona visiting family and really got to experience spring with all of our senses. the overwhelming smell of sweet orange blossoms every evening as the sun went down filled the air for hours; citrus trees were full of both flowers and fruit (which made great fresh squeezed juice every morning); bright white apple blossoms began to appear; bees and bumble bees were working overtime; and the sun was warm on our skin as we sat at the ballpark or did cartwheels in the grass. happy first day of spring!
