No april fools day for me today! After the last couple of days that were pretty hard and I wished that I was back in the Netherlands (I think the medical care is really the only area where I rather be in the Netherlands than over here!) I had a great experience tonight. We went to redbox to rent a dvd and a lady comes over and says: "Are you renting a DVD... if so I have a promocode to get it for free! Would you like to use it?" This is a stranger who takes the time to get out of the car, give us the code... granted it would only have been a dollar to rent the dvd, but it was so considerate and so nice.... I was really pleasantly surprised! So thank you, lady! It really made my day! I guess there are things that are bigger and better in Texas..... and that takes us to my pictures..... I thought we had some pretty big thistles in our garden in the Netherlands, I reconsidered! These thistles were huge!!! And okay they are not the prettiest things, but they are extreme and spring like, at least to this Dutch woman!
The last picture is of a beautiful flower of which I don't know the name.
