A first sprinkle of snow
by thirdeyemom
Yesterday I was running around the lake in shorts, a record for Thanksgiving Day here in Minnesota. The weather changed and light fluffy snow began to fall, bringing joy and delight into my children’s eyes. Above is a sprinkling of snow on my lavender bush.

Every day life in Minneapolis
by thirdeyemom
Photo taken on Monday night driving home from Lake Street in Southwest Minneapolis. Monday night I went to an inspiring book signing at the Global Market near Lake Street. It was an amazing event which I’ll share more soon on thirdeyemom. As I drove home, the sunset seemed to reflect what an inspiring evening it was. I snapped this picture through my car window using my iPhone. It clearly represents a day in the life of a “thirdeyemom”. To read […]

August sunset on Lake Harriet
by thirdeyemom
Photo taken a few days ago at Lake Harriet near my home in Southwest Minneapolis. I find it fitting to feature this photo today.

I’ll miss my summer sunsets over the lake but look forward to the magical fall colors that September and October will surely bring.

Purple Pasque Flowers
by thirdeyemom
I first saw them when I was running last spring. The mysteriously beautiful Pasque flowers that bloom around Easter each spring in Minnesota. Luckily I had my camera in hand and snapped the first picture shown of the gorgeous purple fuzzy flower coming to life after a long, cold Minnesota winter. I later found out the name of the flower thanks to a fellow blogger and discovered more of them at the Trial Gardens near Lake Harriet in Southwest Minneapolis. […]
