Spring has Sprung

The birds are chirping, flowers are already starting to bloom and allergy season has started.  Soon, all of Texas will be layered in a yellow coat of pollen.  I am already suffering from my first sinus infection of the season and most certainly not my last.  Oh how I despise allergy season...why does it have to be so beautiful out while I am so miserable?  Not much crafting or creating going on in my world right now, but I can show you the glimpse of beautiful spring I saw while at the park with my kids.  Enjoy!

BTW, if anyone could please tell me what type of flower I found at the park, that would be fantastic.  It was found on a tree/shrub.  Thanks!
