Happy Spring

My little brother gave our mom a wonderful birthday present a few years ago.  He knew she would enjoy a membership to the Dallas Arboretum more than a flower arrangement.  I was a beneficiary of his gift as well, since the pass is good for two people (and parking), and I am the designated driver.


Today, we went to Dallas Blooms, which was named one of America's Best Spring Floral Festivals by Fodors Travel, 2015.
This is a small sample of the tulips we enjoyed.


The cherry blossoms were so full and white, they didn't seem real.


Here's my mom in her element.
We also enjoyed a wonderful outdoor lunch at the Restaurant DeGoyler.


The Dallas Arboretum is not to be missed, especially in March!  Just wear your comfortable shoes, there is a lot of ground to cover.

Heartfully,
Eilis
