Jacaranda

One of my favorite signs of spring and summer are the violet blossoms on the jacaranda tree. Colorfully blowing in the breeze, the trees are just beautiful. There are plenty of jacarandas all around SB, and all over CA, that it's a treat seeing them everywhere I go.








Jacarandas are like colorful canopies that cover the streets and sidewalks, dusting them last with tiny pieces of violet.


Happy Tuesday!

Cherry Blossoms and a Blue Sky

Blessed with amazing warm weather and clear skies last weekend, hubs and I took a long afternoon walk around SB and found cherry blossom trees in bloom! These are one of my favorite trees. I love the puffy look of flowers clustered together, the sweet and delicate look, and the perfectly soft shades of pink. With the bluest skies as the back drop, I had to take a few photos of some trees.

I think my future home has to have a cherry blossom tree in the yard. And an avocado tree ;)

What is your favorite tree? Are you excited for spring to come?
