Purple Flowers

One of my favorite things about living in the Pacific Northwest is having an actual Spring. You know, where trees turn green again, buds grow on trees, flowers bloom, and the weather gets warmer. Yes, we still have our fair share of rain in the Spring (it is raining as I write this in fact). Spring weather is far from consistent, but we actually can witness the renewal of life around us. Growing up, I was more used to snow, mud, and then summer. We would see the trees turn green, but oftentimes it was closer to summer than in Spring.
