"When will you and Daddy be back?"

This lovely picture from flickr was taken just as the parents were about to leave and the babysitter arrive. Do you all remember that feeling? I do.

My poor little brother was going through this earlier today. He's really been freaking out every time my mom leaves now that my dad is gone on the weekdays. Today as my mom was leaving the poor little guy was crying and asked about fifteen times when she was coming home. He's finally settled down now though and is watching Joey with my grandma.

The Kwanzan Cherry Tree Project

About a week ago one of my neighbors kindly let me take a bunch of photos of her amazing Kwanzan Cherry Tree that I've always adored. (It's such an amazingly gorgeous tree I think.) When I say I took a bunch of pictures, I do mean a bunch. I think I took about 20 or 30 pictures of it in total. These are just my favorites and I thought I'd share. What do you think?

Links For The Weekend

Happy Friday all! What are you going to be doing this weekend? I'll probably just read some and watch some movies and things with my dad and grandma (and hopefully we'll be having the lovely Kansas City Steak Burgers that we haven't had in like months). Who knows though, something else might come up too.

I'm really in love with these awesome pictures.

There's even a tent in there.

Country charm.

What a cute little flower party!

Wouldn't this just be wonderful to hold some fruit in?

Think pink! (You gotta love it.)

Such bold and beautiful hairpieces!

I just love these gorgeous beach Polaroids!

Aren't these just too lovely?

P.S. By the way, sorry everything is so late.

And You Can Put Stuff In It Too

I'm really loving this adorable Townsend Coffee Table from Pottery Barn. It's so pretty and it's such a lovely idea. It's like a shadow box that's a coffee table. And it doesn't have to be just merely decorative either. I think it could also be very functional. Just think of the things you could store in it. I wonder what I would put in it if I had one.

Navy Rain Jacket

Isn't this Spiewak navy rain jacket just too lovely? I especially love the fit. I don't really have a rain jacket at the moment and while this wouldn't totally work for me, I'm defiantly going to be on the look out for something like it when I go shopping to get a rain jacket.

Speaking of rain though, I really can't wait until the next spring shower. I've only gotten to take a rain walk around in my simi-new rain boots once so far. It was so much fun and I want to do it again. But the rain we've been getting latly is usually only at night. And I've never been a huge fan of walking in the dark (especially while it's raining). Well, maybe one during the day will come soon. I sure hope so.

By The Way...

It took me a while, but I finally decided to go ahead and post from here in Springfield. It's not really a vacation and I have Internet so it works out alright. Just wanted to let everybody know that I'm here and I'm planning on posting this week. I hope your Monday was as nice as mine!
