birthdays, blossoms, and blooms

It's been SO warm all week.  Everything in the yard has erupted in bloom, or has expired!  The daffodils are all finished, as are most of the tulips.

The wisteria and lilac are competing for "most fragrant".

The fruit trees are bursting and the bees are frantically working to gather as much pollen as they can possibly squeeze in.

And, today is not only the Queen's 90th birthday, but it's my birthday as well!

It's been a super good day.  Aging is a privilege!
