Rain Boots Bouquet

~ April Showers ~
Bring Out the Rain Boots!

I'm longing to plant some flowers
It's hard to wait for the weather to warm up

So until that happens,
This is what will greet you by the front door

We've had some fun weather lately.
Within one hour yesterday the sky was dark and stormy,
~ the sun came out ~
then stormy clouds covered again with rain and thunder,
dark clouds hid the sun,
until another glorious burst of sunshine

I do believe spring is trying its hardest to appear!

{is it any wonder I am painting stormy skies lately?!?}

Violet...how GORGEOUS!!
There is a famous Russian song by the name of "Nature does have bad weather"...sounds silly, but it is a beautiful song with a double meaning...mostly of gratitude...
Thank you for bringing so much beauty, dear friend!!
xoxo,
