The Nelson Five: Chelsea Flower Show

Chelsea Flower Show

Mom and I went to the Chelsea Flower Show on Saturday to celebrate her birthday. She was in floral heaven, and I unknowingly, became a flower show snob the minute I walked into the place. After seeing the Royal Horticultural Society's garden show, I don't think I'll ever be impressed by another flower or garden display again!

It was truly a breathtaking exhibition of floral and gardening designs. Here are a few snapshots of our day there:

Happy Birthday, mom! We love you and already miss you and dad terribly!

Welcome

I began this blog in 2008 as we picked up and moved our family from Dallas, Texas to London, England as a result of a fabulous job opportunity for my husband. My primary goal was to stay in touch with family and friends as well as begin an online family photo album to preserve our precious memories. With 3 young boys at home and life moving at a breakneck speed, I found that by taking even a few moments to capture a thought or a photo or a memory from our day provided a much needed outlet and a place to be a bit more intentional and present. Our family enjoyed every single moment of our two years in London before a new role was offered to my husband which also required a relocation, this time to Boston, Massachusetts. We settled in Wellesley in September of 2009 and loved life in our teeny-tiny Norman Rockwell New England town. After 4 fabulous years in Boston, our family relocated yet again, this time back to Dallas. We feel so fortunate to have been given these amazing opportunities to live and visit and experience life in different places and we certainly look forward to many more adventures!
