Spring at the Dallas Arboretum

Last weekend was sun-shiny and beautiful.  EVERYONE (and I do mean everyone) was out and about enjoying mother nature's present.  The perfect after work outing presented itself in the form of the Dallas Arboretum.  If you know me well, you know my love of tulips.  Let's just say I got to see enough tulips to suffice my spring tulip cravings for quite a while. 

It took FOREVER to get to the Arboretum around the masse of people flooding through the gates.  It was so worth it though.  The old and the young, babies, toddlers, and couples adorned the manicured lawns blowing bubbles, taking photos, and generally enjoying every thing about their afternoon. 

People milling with Whiterock Lake and the skyline in the distance.

I definitely recommend the trip for anyone considering!!!
