It’s always nice to look back on a week that felt like any other and discover you actually saw some great things along the way. April in the Pacific Northwest means fresh flowers, a little bit of sunshine and a lot of rain, all of which you can see above, and to keep things interesting we added a few baskets of fish and chips accompanied by an impromptu concert of Star Wars favorites.
Sunday’s photo is the listing image for a new small blanket in our Etsy shop and Monday Ryan brought out his older French Horn to play me some Star Wars music on a rainy afternoon. Tuesday is a pretty blossom shot from my morning dog walk and Wednesday night John and I visited Spud’s for Fish and Chips.
Thursday had me wishing I could tuck this bouquet of flowers in my handbag to carry home but then Friday morning this view was waiting out my back door so I felt ok about leaving the other arrangement at my Hair Salon. 🙂 Saturday started bright and early with a quick trip north to the Skagit Valley tulip fields before the crowds arrived and peaceful photos became impossible.
Coming soon I’ve got a great set of new photos almost ready to share here from our latest spring adventures and if you’d like to follow along in real-time don’t forget I post my daily photos on Instagram, Twitter and Facebook. If a once-a-week blog read is more your speed my weekly recaps will continue here along with caption notes containing editing information for each photo.
I look forward to your tulip pictures every spring! Gorgeous!
Thanks, Nancy! We got there just in time – the festival ended two weeks early this year!
A beautiful gallery, LIsa!! Happy spring 🙂
Thanks so much, Amy. Happy Spring to you too! 🙂
What a lovely collection again, Lisa. The flowers look so fresh, and I’m sure the fish and chips tasted fresh too. Mid week treat 🙂
A week that includes fresh flowers and fish and chips is always a treat, Mabel. 🙂 Thanks so much for your visit and cheerful comments!
Love your recap and photos. What lovely memories, treasures and gratitude.
Thank you, Annie. 🙂 It’s been a nice exercise to revisit my daily photos after a little time has passed to see trends and recognize the special little moments of each week.
Tulips, ranunculas, peonies? All so very beautiful. Thank you for sharing!
Thanks so much for visiting and for your lovely comment!
I especially like the pictures of the tulips. It’s a gorgeous shot. 🙂
Thank you, Bun! The tulips get me every year. 🙂
