Fun Springy Pictures

I have a friend that is kind of crafty and I asked her to make Megan this adorable headband. Megan was excited to get her headbands (she also has one that is brown/teal/lime green) so when I asked her to pose for a picture she actually said "Okay" So naturally I had to pose her next to the pretty flowers growing in our yard.
Just a pretty picture of the pink dogwood tree. I know nothing about trees, but everyone has told me that the pink dogwoods are very hard to grow in our area. Since people mentioned it to me I then started noticing that Adrian had lots of white dogwoods, but not too many pink ones. So I wanted to take a picture of ours before the leaves started to grow. Plus I wanted to brag a little that this is the view I had from my living room all spring :)

Poor Baron. Megan wanted/insisted Baron to wear her headband. She put it on, he shook it off. She pot it back on, he shook it off again. She put it on once more, Baron gave up and just went back to sleeping. He is such a good dog, no matter what Megan does he just let's her do it. Not sure if it is because he loves her, or he is just too lazy.
The "snow" in our yard from our neighbors cottonwood tree. I have never lived near a cottonwood tree so I expected a little bit of white stuff flying around, but wow, we could have shoveled it! It collected around the playground, behind the grill and all over our driveway. So between this fluff and the mosquitoes flying all over the place, I was going crazy. Luckily, the cottonwood is done shedding/molting??? now I just need to get rid of the mosquitoes...any ideas?
And last but not least, Megan's first ear of sweet corn for the summer! It was grown in Georgia, but it was yummy. Sweetcorn always makes you feel like summer is here :)
You might have noticed the random pictures that kind of relate, yep I'm out of pictures. Couldn't believe it myself, but really I have been horrible at taking pictures. I know we have been doing things, but not really picture worthy. I guess from now on I will just take pictures of everything and then "edit" as I look for blog topics. I'll try to get better, I promise.
