Simple Pleasures

How could you not love this season of the year?

What’s one of my favorite pleasures during this season?

To walk out my back door, pluck a handful of fresh flowers, and bring them indoors.

What simple pleasures!

But aren’t they the best kind?

The second and third photo's are my favorite! I especially love the pink! Your little goslings are adorable. I have taken to keeping my little digital with me at all times(for when I don't have my canon with me) - just in case ... because the perfect photo opportunity always shows up when I am not prepared!

One of my sons is visiting me on my 'special' day today!!!!!

Hope you have a wonderful day. We have some roses in bloom now also. SO gorgeous.
