summer flowers

the dallas arboretum has been a long time favorite in my family. i can remember going there every season when i was little - with grandparents, without, picking pumpkins, painting tulips, looking for easter eggs, you get the picture. i can't tell you how many picnics i've had there. strangely, i've never been in the summer - and now i probably know why. don't get me wrong - we had a blast and thoroughly enjoyed the frog splash fountains mostly because we played in them (definitely not allowed). i was amazed to see how many flowers survived the heat and just how beautiful it is year round. i love this place. and what was even better than the picture perfect flowers? being there with my family.



this one's for you mom. we love you. even if erika and i both look super awkward in this photo.
