Trip down memory lane

 Three years ago Joe and I went to Wilmington (his old stomping ground) for Azalea Festival.  It was the perfect weather and the perfect road trip.  We were only dating at the time but I knew that this was something special.  Seeing these pictures just makes me happy.

So beautiful!

That's the USS North Carolina in the background

Warm sand. Love.
I love this man.

He still makes me laugh.
 
 I love happy memories.

Spring means strawberries

March was warm. Unseasonably warm. I'm kind of nervous about what that means for August. Until then I am going to enjoy the benefits of a warm spring. Strawberries--they're here. They are plump, juicy, and delicious. I decided to make my Aunt Carolyn's strawberry pie for Easter and it was delicious.



The recipe is from Taste of Home.  Go get some strawberries and make this pie!

Happy Easter

I hope everyone is having a lovely Easter weekend! Here are some photos of our weekend...

I love egg dying.

The hubby takes this seriously

Gotta have nourishment for egg dying

Success!
Now it's time to make some deviled eggs. Happy Easter!

Cozy and quaint




Joe and I tried out another restaurant in downtown Apex this week.  I am continually amazed with how active the downtown area is!  And the food has been excellent every time.


Mmm...pizza.

Makes me excited for the spring and summer downtown festivities to begin.

Chirp chirp chirp

We've got baby birds! I had noticed a nest on our front porch when we first moved in a month ago. I just assumed it was an old next but a few weeks later I noticed that a bird kept flying off in a huff every time I opened my front door to water the plants.  I started to pay attention more and realized that it was definitely an active nest.  Joe called me yesterday to say the baby birds made their appearance. I haven't seen them yet but he did! I'll see if I can get some pictures of them without scaring them off.  We have furniture being delivered this weekend so I hope they don't get too annoyed with the disturbance.

Can you see the nest up there?

Smart bird! I wish I could get a better view though!

Just another reason to love spring. Across the street from our neighborhood is a farm and the cows had their babies too.  I keep hoping that I'll see a baby bunny but not yet.

And the thunder rolls

When I left work yesterday there was the biggest storm cloud in the sky.  It was behind me and it was very odd to see sunny blue skies ahead and then look into my rear view mirror and see the dark scary looking clouds behind me.

Unfortunately, I was completely out of gas so I made a quick stop and prayed that I could get my tank filled before the fury was unleashed. While filling my tank, I took some pictures.

I love thunderstorms. I just don't like getting stuck outside in them!

Can you see that storm wall? It was the most amazing thing to see.

The good news was that I made it home dry!
