Today is a Holy Friday (Good Friday). A moment of prayer to praise and be grateful for His courage and His sacrifice.

Also a break to appreciate my surrounding. The fresh moments of spring in Austin and blooming wild flowers that color the entire meadow!

Blubonnets over the green carpet!
It was like a wish came true. Last night, I was searching for places to see wild flowers in Texas. And this morning, I found the 'wild flowers area' right across our residence is covered with a huge patch of bluebonnets and some other wild flowers that I am obviously not able to name them.
