Flowers On A Tuesday

It's been, what feels like weeks, since I've had my camera in hand.  The hustle and bustle of getting everyone into a school routine sorta took my life over.  Now that we're settling in nicely, I had a moment this afternoon to just sit down and breath.  And what do you think is sitting right behind my laptop for me to gaze upon?  The roses from our rose ceremony from this past Saturday.  I also got conned into some absolutely beautiful purple flowers (Anyone know what these are?).  For only 2 bucks for a huge bundle, I couldn't refuse.  I'm such a sucker.

So you know what I did with those amazing flowers?  I took them right out to my new back deck to do a quick photo shoot.  And now that I have this amazing new back deck, I didn't even have to put shoes on.  This is very important.  No shoes = good.

So for your viewing pleasure, may I present, Flowers on a Tuesday.

  1. Margaret says the third one down with the depth of field and because I've been married 27 years, I agree with her!
