This last weekend, we were able to get away for a long weekend to Palm Springs for some R&R. Not only did we stay in a lovely home (thanks so much, dear friends!) but we were surrounded by the relaxing beauty of God's creation...
Many of the bushes were in bloom... 
...and so were the flower gardens along the sidewalks.

There are many hiking and biking paths beside the many golf courses in the city...
and of course, many kinds of Palm trees!
The view from our back patio was literally a canopy of fruit trees!
And to top off the weekend, we got to see this little guy! (Unfortunately, his little cousin across the street was out visiting, so we didn't get to see her.)
"sooo big!"
his favorite book
talking with Abby 
and "talking" with his puppet dogWe came home refreshed and rested and thankful for friends and family and all the blessings that God has given to us.

The pictures of the flowers are really giving me some spring fever - considering it's snowing here right now!
After our snowfall of 6-10 inches today the flowers are beautiful!!! Also the green grass and trees with leaves! Sure am looking forward to spring. J is a sure growing up quickly! Aren't all these stages of the first year fun to "see" thru his eyes and reactions?! Glad you had a good rest. I need that too one day...
