Yes, April Showers can bring lots of pretty flowers.............

But sadly, this April also brought the deaths of some old friends. Here Danny is preparing for the funeral of neighbor, Andrew....................

He passed away quite young and will be sorely missed...............

But happily, this April also was blessed with the happy kind of "showers"..............

Like the Bridal Shower for Miss Rebecca in Albuquerque..................

Here she is posing with Juliana and Marguerite--two of her late mother Connie's closest friends..............

Connie's old friends sat at a special table........................


Reserved in memory of Connie....................................

Of course, a shower is all about "gifting"..........................


That's one really big present, or one little tiny dress, because Miss Rebecca looks naked.............

Rebecca's brother Jack's adorable friend....................

The Maid-of-Honor arranged all of the festivities all the way from Law School in Washington, D.C.................................

A pensive bride-to-be opens her '"wine theme" gifts..................

a lovely goblet!--in fact, all the guest received commemorative wine glasses with charms of the Bride and Groom's initials as favors.........................

Princess Kate Middleton has nothing on this New Mexico beauty...............

One of the last of Dwight's mother's violets blossoms in the garden..............

So hopefully, gentle readers, May will also bring you lots of lovely May flowers and lots of cherished memories as well................
