Two little love birds

Two little love birds sitting on the deck...

K-i-s-s-i-n-g...

First comes love...

Second comes marriage,

Third comes a little baby in a baby carriage.

Cherry blossom in Washington DC

We were so anxious to see the cherry blossom in Washington DC. During the last whole week, we checked the weather broadcast everyday. Fortunately, it changed from rainy to mostly sunny eventually. I was excited and made some banana chocolate chips muffins – sweet treats for the coming joyful day!

I was worried about parking, but we were so lucky to get one without any problem. Our car was parked near this amazing spot.

Wow, aren’t they beautiful?

A valentine heart:

Gorgeous: 

What a cloud!

We didn’t plan for travelling in Washington DC. But since we still had some time, we took a walk along the park and saw Capitol Hill。

Nice local people told us that White House is nearby, so we decided to pay a visit.

How quiet:

The next day, early in the morning, it snowed:

We are soooooooooooo lucky!

First spring blossom in the yard

Maryland is really warm, I am surprised to see blossom in early March. Are they Northern Blue Flag?

Pearls in nursing pad

Very beautiful pearls in nursing pad when it absorbs breast milk:

Glass bead microbes

My friend's mom is an artist, she makes a lot of glass bead microbes -- when science and art meet, it is incredible. I recently took some photos, aren't they pretty?

Ruby Tuesday

This is a season of pomegranate. Very pretty, eh? A bowl of ruby.

Today is Tuesday, which reminds me of the song, and one professor I met in Quebec, who is now living in the heaven.

A beautiful sunny afternoon

Maple blossom

Maple blossom looks like a shy bride dressing silk gown and wearing silver jewelery.

In sunset:

Spring is coming soon...

This weekend, 10 degree in the afternoon, pretty warm eh? I took a walk in the Waterfowl Park, trying to find the sign of spring.

I am curious why the ice cubes look like the cubes from ice maker machine.

The trail is still covered with snow:

Look, a deep hole:

The ice is melting:

Very peaceful:

Lovely fresh buds:

Beautiful color:

New skin:

Just for fun: do you think this photo is real?

Freezing rain

Freezing rain came one month later than last year. It was so beautiful, with diamonds hanging on the trees, crystal candy canes everywhere...although there were several outages of power.

Teabag & water drop -- two wishes

We had no hot water supply this weekend,

I wish I were a teabag,

A cup of hot water,

Would have been enough for me,

To have a nice and warm dream.

When I was young,

I wished I could have a pure soul like crystal,

Now what?
