Welcome to another week of Weekly Winners.

First, a little personal bloggy business. After being inspired by Sarcastic Mom’s blog carnivals about (breast)feeding and birth stories, I decided to host a carnival called How I Met My Honey, which will be April 29. (A carnival on weddings — some weddings ARE carnival-like after all :) — will be on May 19.) Anyway, click here for information. I hope you’ll participate!

And now, onto the real fun stuff!

I took this picture on Easter Sunday morning while waiting for the tram to go back to the bottom of Stone Mountain after the Sunrise Service.

This was taken at the bottom of Stone Mountain on Easter Sunday morning.

I love how crisp the leaves on the pine tree look.

Dogwood flowers (I think).

This photo is of the same tree as the one above…

…as is this one. The same tree has three different stages of “awakening” for spring going on simultaneously.

I took this picture from inside a moving car. I. Love. It.

BARK! and bark and bark and bark and bark… the whole time we were in the car. This is typical for Fox. We’re thinking of getting Toby — and us — ear plugs.

BARK!

Bud…

Really great photos. I love the first one. And yes, that is a dogwood. We had one at my parents’ old house.

Thanks so much!

16 Laura 03.30.08 at 9:40 pm

I love the crisp pine too, and the dog wood. My mom and dad have a dogwood in their front yard…it’s so big and beautiful. :) when it’s in it’s full beauty it peeps in the upstairs windows and just makes life that much more beautiful!

Thanks for sharing the story of your parent’s dogwood. How neat!

Brandie’s last blog post..Weekly Winners (Late)

Thanks so much, Brandie! I like the moving car one more and more each time I look at it. (Does that sound vain? I don’t mean it to.) I’m so enjoying Weekly Winners.
