Spring...

...is finally here! It is absolutely beautiful in California right now. All the trees are blooming, the flowers are starting to bloom, and the hills are very green. Kyle took this picture of a bloom on a Saucer Magnolia Tree.

It has been really rainy here in these last few weeks, which have been such a blessing. However, there was a break in the weather this last weekend with lots of sunny rays. We were finally able to get out of the house and go on our first hike of the Spring up to Castle Rock. It was beautiful! Here are some pics of our little adventure.

It was very green!!!

This is where Bear Grills would set up camp for the night...

It feels great to be out in the sunny weather again!
