Snowy Cherry Blossoms

One of my favorite harbingers of springtime . . .


. . . is the gorgeous weeping cherry in our back yard.  Every April, we're treated to the sight of thousands of little pink flowers on its graceful branches.


This particular April morning, we awoke to find those blossoms dusted with snow.


Apparently, winter wanted one last hurrah before spring starts coloring in the landscape again.


While snowflakes drifted down outside, the boys read Life of Fred books in their PJs . . .


. . . and Joy studied for three math tests.  That's right, three.  She wants to take calculus her first year of high school, and the administrators say that's fine as long as she scores at least 85 percent on the final exams for Geometry, Algebra II, and Pre-Calculus.  She's working hard to prepare, and I think if anyone can achieve that goal, Joy can.
