341 Days Later...

Wow.

I pulled up my blog today and sat shocked at what I saw: the date of my latest post: April 23, 2011. This realization triggered some genuine feelings of self-loathing. I have abandoned my blog completely for almost a year.

By the way, I see that you all have really missed me. Thanks for that.

Regardless, I determined that I would certainly not let a full year lapse without a scintillating commentary or visual exhibition to entertain you all, my faithful followers.

Because I do not have an actual topic to blog about today and because I am so happy that it's springtime and because Tulip Time is a month away (someone really should inform the tulips which are coming up now) and because I can smell the fresh, gooey stroopwafels that make right the world, I thought I would simply share with you some of my favorite spring photographs.

Aren't run-on sentences fun? I think so.


a butterfly having an afternoon snack...



a gorgeous thunderhead billowing toward the heavens...



a nest holding the promise of new life...



the little miracles...



flowers small yet full of splendor...



adventurous babies...



life bursting forth from death...



sweet, luscious smells of spring.
