We live in an area where the azaleas are prolific this time of year! We have a couple of small bushes in our yard and Emily has been especially aware of their beauty this year. She has learned what kind of flower they are and we've had fun pointing them out all over town.
I knew there was a spot nearby that had really gorgeous azaleas and, while we went about one week past their prime, they were still beautiful and the evening was fun for all of us!
I think the highlight of the evening for Emily was a bride and groom getting their pictures taken in the area we were walking and looking at the flowers. It began to sprinkle as we arrived, but the ladies had fun sporting their umbrellas!

hehe....so sweet! :)
Our yard is full of azaleas and they are just beginning to bloom for the year. So pretty!
Azaleas are one of my favorite flowers. They just don't grow well where I live. It looks like you had a great time... sweet pictures!
Your kids are darling!
They are really beautiful flowers. I don't see many here in Utah.
Eeer, winter storm warning here... I will mail the jars today or tomorrow... Bless your week!
Love Azaleas. Such a pretty flower and your Littles are just the sweetest. Loved your pics.
CUTE! I'm thinking of giving my kiddos little umbrellas for their spring gift! :D
Beautiful flowers!
I couldn't help but notice how much your older daughter looks like Carrie and your son looks like his dad! Happy Spring! I love simple family nights!
They are so sweet! And I agree about how pretty azaleas are. Nothing is blooming here yet though---we're getting about a foot of snow today!
