nothing but blue skies and sunshine

cold and dreary is just not my thing and almost as a joke there were slight flurries yesterday in some of our neighboring towns.
but today.....today was perfect. ava may have jumped the gun a little. she was running barefoot through the grass.....but, at least she wasn't bare bummed as i would somtimes find her in the middle of winter strutting around the house. i will remind her of this someday.

this little lady is all set to explore.....sunglasses--check, camera--check

everything is starting to turn green....such a fresh and clean color

this little guy means business...he will not let the mud get the best of him

and now, a few favorite quotes. enjoy.

"The important thing is this: To be able at any moment to sacrifice what we are for what we could become." {Charles Dubois}

"If we knew what it was we were doing, it would not be called research, would it?" {Albert Einstein}
