These flowers needed their own post. Look at the colors of these rainbow roses! The florist said he has to soak the flowers in each color of colored water in order for petals to color. So pretty!

One last trip to Tahoe
My family and I made it to Tahoe on the last week before Ski season finished. This picture was taken at the top of one of the ski lifts. Isn’t the view amazing? I would love to come to tahoe more often not only in the winter time, but the summer time as well. Hopefully we can come back soon for a camping trip or something!

The Lights
Over the weekend I went to Stonyford and attended a lantern festival. I haven’t been to anything like this before so this experience was pretty cool. The company used a camping site for the venue and had a few food and souvenir booths. When we arrived, the sun was still out as you could see. Each group had their own area in order to keep spacing for COVID. When we arrived, we were given blank lanterns to decorate. Once the sun went down, we lit our lanterns and watched them float away. You may be thinking, “that is NOT good for the environment” or “wow, what a fire hazard” BUT, after you light the lanterns, the flame stays lit for about a minute in order for it to reach the sky and then the flame goes out and the lantern sails back down to the ground. Also, after the event, there is a crew who picks up each and every lantern from the event. In the rare case the crew doesn’t pick up a lantern, the paper is biodegradable and will decompose back into the earth within days. Overall, it was a super cool experience.
