i [heart] springtime

sign of tomatoes to come

If only Atlanta weather could stay like this all year ’round! The weekend has been so beautiful. Mild, almost crisp mornings, not too hot in the afternoons. Amy says it’s like Aspen in the Summertime. Of course, we’ll be seeing the 90s here soon enough. These photos summarize what this time of year is all about – Sam working in the garden, Dad marinating some flank steak and grilling it up along with super-fresh asparagus and squash, and just-planted tomato plants in all their fuzzy glory beginning to bloom. 65 days and counting till we have some fresh goodies for our salads. Yum!

another day at the zoo

We got a late start to the day (Sam chilled in his crib for well over an hour after waking up) and decided to stick close to home. So Amy, Sam and I headed to ZooAtlanta. Some of the photos can be seen here below, or see the slideshow on Flickr here.
