Happy Spring everyone!

Here are a few photos of the beautiful lilac tree in front of my parents' French "pied-à-terre". It's been in bloom for about 2 weeks already, and I've been hoping & praying that it would stay pretty until the folks' arrival...tomorrow!


Since the lilac doesn't always have a really long flowering period, we've immortalized it with MORE than enough photos. Here's a slightly different angle..

Ready for its close-up...


..and one more shot, just to hammer my point home. Needless to say, it smells heavenly too! I'm going to clip a few branches to put in vases tomorrow morning, right before heading to the airport to pick up the parental units..
