Hello everyone and hello to the new week :) Hope your weekend was nice. My kids are out of school for the summer and I have family visiting from India so its been busy at MDC :) One of the reasons why I love where I live is because of its proximity to the mountains. We are a few hours away from the Cascade mountains range. Every time I see the jagged peaks I am mesmerized by their beauty.
This weekend we drove two hours to a German village called Leavenworth which is nestled in the foothills of the Cascades.
Leavenworth is a replica of a German village. Its touristy, its crowded and yet there is something fun and magical about this place. I have seen this picturesque town in every season and its pretty anytime of the year. However, this weekend the place looked happier as the streets were lined with flowering baskets in a myriad hues. Wherever I looked, these swaying baskets where vying for my attention :) Leavenworth is a place filled with laughter and smiles and I too caught the bug :) It was nice to get away from the humdrum of everyday life. Here are a few pictures.......
I did stop at a great home store and managed to take a few pictures. Stay tuned for a post about this lovely little place filled with delightful treasures!
