I’ll be the first to say that I’ve been behind in blogging lately, but I think I have a legitimate excuse – spring is in the air!!
Maybe it’s because I was living in Toronto last spring, but I am noticing the signs of spring in a somewhat magical way this year. Even my generic, cookie-cutter subdivision (yes, I still miss my old house!) looks pretty. Everything is so natural, so colourful, so full!! The versions of pinks and purples I have seen blossoming lately amazes me. This past weekend I went on a wine tour in Niagara-on-the-Lake with my favourite ladies. As we were driving along the Niagara Parkway I could help but think, wow, we’re so luck to live right here.

st of all I have been noticing the trees. I think this all began with a visit to the Art Gallery of Hamilton. I saw the most amazing tree made of rope suspended about an inch off the floor. Although artificial, there was something so whimsical and beautiful about it. Now I find myself checking out trees all the time.
I still stand behind that fact that winter is my favourite season…but I’ll also admit nothing beats spring after a long and cold winter!! Everything is a little sunnier and little prettier and a little nicer. My favourite place to spend an afternoon is Montebello park – a gathering place for anyone and everyone who loves this gorgeous time of year. I suggest you check it out. Happy spring!
