It’s been up to three weeks since I’ve arrived in the States and we had some really crazy but wonderful days in the same time! Amidst a funeral, 2 weddings (one being ours, happening at the end of this week), 2 job interviews, my fiance’s last exams, graduation and the start of a new job, plus all the other things in between, I honestly think that we redefined the term “busy”! :)
Even so, I tried to sneak peek here and there and take some time to just enjoy the new sights and smells around me…everything is so green and bursting with life in Virginia! the birds are singing like crazy next to our window! and the smell of the grass, and the earth….we are definitely getting ready for summer!
No photos yet though but I remembered Waterhouse’s lyrical and ethereal paintings…this comes pretty close because that’s how I feel every time I walk in the park or near a bush of flowers, or a tree… :)
John William Waterhouse, “My sweet rose”, 1908

Are you guys enjoying the approaching of summer? and what are your favorite flowers? :) Leaving Austria, everything was in bloom there too but the lilac was EVERYWHERE and the smell….you just couldn’t get enough!
