Barefoot in the Orchard
One of my favorite memories was walking barefoot in our apricot orchard. That was years ago, and it's still one of the first things that comes to mind when searching my life's memories.
It is unbearable for me to think about my beautiful orchard and the many others that surrounded it now only exist in my memory -- long ago replaced by houses. I prefer to keep those images in my mind as if it were only yesterday...
It's a beautiful summer morning, I'm 12 years old, outside my cat Peewee (a big yellow tabby with a bobbed tail) greets me. I head straight out into the orchard. The branches overhead hang low and heavy -- and the sweet smell of apricots fill the air. Running faster and farther with each step -- the seemingly never-ending rows of trees stretch out before me. I can feel the warm sun on my face and the cool feel of the dirt under my feet. ~

HI! Just thought I'd tell you that I love your blog and all you've done on it. Very unique and fun!! I only have one boy and I help with the boy scouts, so all those "girly" things are soooo cute!!
SARAH
Thanks so much Sara - I will check out your blog as well!

How sweet. I love the crown and the party clothes!
By the way, I went from home improvement center to home improvement center today after yesterday Strawberry pincushion post. Do you know how hard it is to find sand in northern Illinois in January?? I'm determined.
Thanks Suzanne - we have used that crown over and over in our house for years.
Good luck with the sand. I have to admit I was pretty amused at your comment about finding sand in Illinois in January. The Pacific Ocean is about 30 miles from my front door so it never occured to me it might be hard to come by.
Beautiful, wonderful, perfect! What a lucky little princess she is. Those pictures are gorgeous too!
What a fun party. These photos are adorable!
