A quote Brian has been using these past few months has really struck a chord in me lately:
"Insanity: doing the same thing over and over again and expecting different results." -Albert Einstein I'm so excited that spring is finally here--rain, laughter, joy, new friends, grand new adventures, and, of course, CHANGE!
Speaking of change, we've made some changes here in the Avia household. We've been working on getting healthier
(almost 15 and counting!) and adhering to a real schedule to get our life in order. And finally, just FINALLY I squeeze in the time and creative energy to get a new logo designed. I've been dying to change it for awhile and, well, now we have! A new spring. A new season. A new day!
Happy April, everyone! May it be full of joy and life, my friends!
This particular spring day a few weeks back, Brian and I were taking a break from photography. We walked around a nearby park and ended up sitting down, as we often do, to talk about life, our hopes and our dreams. In the middle of our conversation out of the corner of my eye, I began to notice a gorgeous tree blooming with a rich golden sunlight streaming through the other trees, acting as a beautiful spotlight. We hadn't brought our cameras on this trip so I took a few shots with my iPhone
(this being one of them). I was a little bummed, as the photo didn't do the tree justice, so Brian, being the wonderful, kind, amazing husband that he is, agreed to pause our conversation and run back to the house with me and grab some camera gear. Sadly, by the time we returned a few minutes later, the golden spotlight was gone, but we continued our journey around the park, enjoying creation for what it was: absolutely marvelous, miraculous artwork. = )
Brian being oh-so-sweet and waiting on me while I worked on some close-ups
(he was not feeling so great that day, which made it doubly amazing that he was so patient!).
This was the photo he was waiting on. The blooms from the first tree. I'm not usually a magenta fan, but with bare branches and a vibrant blue sky, how could you go wrong?
What in this photo doesn't belong
(and subsequently makes it different from the previous photo)?
I *LOVE* seeing these everywhere!
The beauty of this next set was almost overwhelming when we encountered it. I couldn't delete many!
This one encapsulates my life. Seriously.
*sigh* I love spring!
Can you see him? He's hiding. = )
Yay spring!
