Spring Flowers...Creeping Phlox

Simone took a few pictures of some spring flowers. They are creeping phlox...they looks so pretty, like a carpet of tiny flowers.

This one is the same as above, but just a closer pic of them. I love these, cause they seem to be one of the first flowering plants out in the spring around here and they are such a lovely site after a long winter of nothing growing.

Simone took these at our house, with her new camera (it is a Casio Exilm 8.1 mega pixel
digital camera). Just wanted to share with everyone.
