So exciting this morning as I pulled out of the driveway and noticed my lilac bush has blooms!!!! Why so exciting? That bush is at least 15 years old . . . maybe older . . . and it has NEVER bloomed. Durned moose keep it pretty well pruned every winter and stunt the blooms.

Until this year . . . yes, just a bit excited. I was surprised to see white – had hoped for the purple – but love, love, LOVE that the bush bloomed.
