Happy All-Most-Proposal Day!

Call me a romantic, but I like to see the blooming flowers that were at the art museum lagoon every year.  After all, they were blooming when I was proposed to!
To celebrate, we take a picnic dinner and eat it down at the lagoon.  I was proposed to on May 9th, but this year we went a week early to celebrate, because the trees were beginning to lose their flowers.
See that spot way over on the other side of the lake?  Behind that black statue is where the magic took place!
Of course, what picnic would be complete without your cute dog!
                               Our family!
It was still a gorgeous night!  The trees were blooming all over in diferent shades of pink, purple, and white.
After dinner, we took a stroll around the lake, where we ran in to all sorts of creatures.  This turtle was getting some last minute rays before the sun set.
The lagoon has hundred of those little fist, and some randomly extra large koi fish too!
It was such a nice night that we went over to the botanical gardins, and found this delicious smelling shrub!  I want one.
Anybody know what kind of plant this is?
The botanical gardens had tulips galore!  This was a very pretty combination of bright orange and bright purple.  
And this was gorgeois around the walkway!
This photo doesn't do these justice.  This was an almost florescent mix of bright pink and bright yellow-orange.  They must not have any deer to eat their tulips!  

What a fun night!  Until next year...
