Farewell Flowers (and other stuff)

Updates on previous posts:
Days until we close on the new house/move ~ 4
Number of boxes packed ~ 35 (approximately ~ I keep losing track)
Number of birthday presents for Adam lost that need to be found by Thursday ~ Big fat goose egg! 0! All presents found and accounted for! Hooray

My new boyfriend, Fisher, wasn't in the childcare room this morning. Actually, no one was, so Alyssa and I left early and took packages to the post office. And finally got around to calling my sister.

We have a crab apple tree in our front yard that I absolutely love. Its just a friendly little tree with these beautiful pink and white blossoms in the spring and then it gets these tiny, firm, red, little crab apples on it in the fall that stick around through the winter. Its really pretty to look out and see the red berries against the snow. Anyway, the wind picked up today and our yard in now littered with white flowers and the tree is looking more green and leafy. Bitter sweet ~ I love the green lushness of the tree, but the flowers smell so wonderful and are so prettty. Here's a picture from last week ~ not full bloom, but pretty close.
