Employee of the Month

After a long afternoon of exhausting errands, my mom and I stopped by the cute shop that Elizabeth works at. (Yeah, yeah, at which Elizabeth works. Or, where Elizabeth works. Oh crap. Who knows.) Point being, it was an adorable shop of gifts and garden decor.

Gorgeous Elizabeth hard at work!

After we shopped and bought, and bought some more, we offered to get Elizabeth something, and she told us about a coffee shop a few blocks away. On the way to the coffee shop...

My mom was excited about this little plant growing in the pipe. We used her foot to give perspective ;)

We saw this beautiful house/shop for sale

The house had a cool mossy sidewalk

And gorgeous flowers in the yard

These er, irises? were so tall!

And another beautiful, light pink flower

When we got to the cutely named coffee shop, though, it was closed- of course!

But all was not lost because on the walk back, we found the cutest little pine cones:

And driving home, we tried to capture how steep the hill was, but, as my mom thought, it just doesn't look as steep in the picture!
And here's another shot that gives you more PacNor scenery:
