For the most part, my weekend filled to overflowing with the mundane.
After the goings-on of last week, mundane proved quite lovely, indeed.
In betwixt projects and errands, my mom and I took my grandma on a little outing. We ordered flavored Coca-Colas, to go—chocolate, green apple, and cherry {the cherry that sits at the bottom, soaking up all the carbonated goodness, is the very best part!}.
We went to a park. We drove downtown. I pulled off to the side every now and again, parked, and ran down the sidewalk to snap a picture or two. I meandered back to the car, my grandma threw up the peace sign through the sunroof, and we laughed.
You see, sometimes it’s under a canopy of an overcast sky, that colors truly learn to dance. Sometimes it’s in holding your breath, that you learn to appreciate a deep, untroubled sigh. And sometimes it’s in a big expanse of darkness that you see just how beautiful and precious the little things can be . . .
I absolutely love tulips!
I skyped with my grandma over the weekend and watched her eat a piece of pizza. Hah.
So we both had some good times with our grandmothers, then?! 🙂
And aren't they lovely? How much fun would it be to go to Holland during Tulip season? Oh, so much . . .
Wow- beautiful pictures!
"You see, sometimes it’s under a canopy of an overcast sky, that colors truly learn to dance." I was just telling Scott that gray skies make everything more beautiful. He looked at me like I was crazy. Now I am going to use your great quote and know I am right! 🙂
Oh good, so glad I could help! 🙂
Actually, I'm not sure I would have noticed if not for the camera. I didn't do a thing with those photos–just snapped them, and posted them. The colors were crazy bright–just as they looked in person!
