Spring Breaks Through

It seems that this year Spring wants a head start, and she's not giving up!  Despite a frost every morning and the periodic flurry of snow, the flowers and buds are doing well.  Little bits of green are peeking up everywhere and the lawns are making a quick recovery from the brief, snow-less winter.  Personally, I am thrilled about having these types of winters, as winter sports and the cold don't quite appeal to me. It is pretty to look at [ for a few days] though. 

Just the other day my Dear Friend and I went to pick up my new baby, a Canon 60D and a 50mm 1.4 lens!  One of the largest purchases of my life so far, aside from college, and it was completely worth it! Here are the first photos I took with it:

This vintage skirt is velvet and sooo soft
