Yeah……..our flowering crab tree bloomed, once again, this year. That’s two years in a row with a tree full of bright, hot pink blossoms. In the past, it seems that it has only bloomed heavily every other year. This is my happy tree. Other than the happiness it brings to our family, it brings happiness to our little valley. We get oodles of comments about our tree as people drive up the valley and see it standing tall…..so beautiful.
As I was taking these pictures last week, I noticed the moon peeking through the top branches. Loved the combination of the faint moon above the bright pink blossoms.
The sad part about this beautiful tree is that it only blooms for a short time. It lasts about a week from start to finish. Monday as the family was sitting by the tree having a hotdog roast, the wind was blowing and the blossoms were coming down pretty heavy….making it look like pink snow.
It was under this tree last year that we took a family photo.
But, since that time, we have a new little addition to our family. Oh, the wonderful change in our family!
