Spring Flowers

I didn't take as many spring flowers this year, and the flower trees that bloomed at the nursing home last Fall also bloomed again last week, but I didn't have a chance to stop by to take photo. These are the photos that I took at my dad's house the last two weekends, I hope…

Spring Flowers

I had always looked forward to Spring Fest at Lee's school, and this year was special since it was her last year at this elementary school. I can't believe how much she has grown, the image below was her first day in kindergarten and she was 5 year old. I will miss going to Spring…

Rules-Cynthia Lord Book Signing

Lee went to Cynthia Lord's book signing at Lenoir Rhyne University for the Little Reader program on April 13, 2013. She was so excited to finally meet the author, and this is the second book signing that she has gone to at LR. A stage play of Rules by LR student. The little readers on…

The weather has gotten a lot warmer this weekend, it was kind of crazy the last few days where we still had overnight frosts and sleet some during the day.  I stopped by the local nursery to buy some young plants on Saturday, the seedlings from last year was not a good experience and didn't…

Camping Weekend

It's nice to comeback to a familiar place and if the woods could talk it's probably would greet me with a smile and ask where have you been Nye? I didn't know you hibernate like the bears. This is my first time seeing an antenna looking like an outer space craft. The mountain flowers are…

Spring Flowers = Allergy Season

Depending on who you are this Season vary from people to people.  It might be Spring season to many, but if you are a tax accountant then it's Tax Season and forget about seeing the light of the day until after April 15th.  As for most of us, it's Allergy Season and seeing this much…

Saturday Random Photos at My Dad’s House

[vimeo http://vimeo.com/62007452 w=560&h=315] Some of the Spring flowers at my dad's house are blooming. These were budding last weekend and now they are in full bloom. The Sakura flowers finally bloomed. Lee levitating, I know kind of late for Spring forward. She was attempting to teach her aunt Bee to levitate. Not exactly Levitating, but I…

Biltmore April 1, 2012

[vimeo http://vimeo.com/39823775 w=515&h=290] I apologize for so many photos, it is impossible to take a few shots when you are at Biltmore. I will miss visiting this place in the summer, but hope to spend more time camping with my family. Lee will miss their Margarita Pizza the most. I'm sure she will miss their gift…

Lee's levitation is inspired by Natsumi. My niece took her turn.  I'm not sure if they were having fun, but I know it is tiring.  It's actually a good exercise for them. My dad's Cherry blossom is in full bloom, I'm actually late in photographing this since some blooms are wilted already. When Bo planted…

My sister filled her fishpond with dirt on Saturday.  She saw the video of her fish, and said that those are not Butterfly Koi but long tail comets.  When she mentioned long tail comet, the name Hale-Bopp comet  came to mind. I thought to myself, your are kidding right? I thought they were fat Butterfly…

Saturday was St. Patrick's Day and finding a 4 leaf clover is considered lucky especially on St. Patrick's Day. My niece was the one that spotted it right away. Yesterday was a beautiful day.  The weather was hot and it felt more like Summer than Spring. I wonder if this foretell what the Summer will…

This will be the last that you will see of the winter around here.  We are sprung forward and daylight saving time change is this weekend. Today we went to the Carolina Home & Garden Show at the Hickory Metro Convention Center.  Bo was able to get us some extra tickets, and  my dad came…

Early Spring Flowers

I made a point to run some errands today so I would be out taking pictures of the spring flowers. My first stop was at my sister Bee's house. I had my 50mm prime lens with me since it's light to carry around but it lacks the ability to zoom because it is a fixed…

We had a severe storm pass through this morning, and the wind gusting seemed like 60mph. Most of my dad's cherry blossom are on the ground. Many trees were down in his neighborhood. I feel bad for this person, this is the second Bradford Pear tree that's down. A good thing that it didn't hit…

I went back to the doctor yesterday and was a bit disappointed that things didn't go as well as I had hoped, which means that I have to have more test run on Monday.  I still have a drainage tube on me, I'm beginning to feel like it's a part of me now.  I came…
