What a magnificently beautiful butterfly! This would appear to be (from a non-butterfly expert) a Blue Morpho Butterfly. It would also appear to be a female butterfly because I've read that females have a brown edge with white spots that surround the blue area. It has also been noted that females are not as brilliantly colored as the males. So if this is a female, just imagine how brilliant the males look.
This will take us nicely into a "B is for Blue Morpho Butterfly" theme.

Alright, I'll admit that the Snappy Saturday edition of my blog has been somewhat challenging. It just seems like I never have my camera with me when I see that oh so perfect picture moment.
But I'm always up for a challenge so I'm going to continue this exciting part of my blog. And I had to get somewhat creative for this Snappy Saturday.
This photo was in our local newspaper. I didn't go to the stadium or anything to snap Mr. Brady's photo, but if I did, that would be some sort of awesome Snappy Saturday.
As I've mentioned before I'm a huge football fan especially for my beloved Patriots. New England fans around the world were so distraught upon hearing the news of Mr. Brady's injury last season. It's like flowers to my eyes that he's back! And if that previous sentence doesn't make sense, let's put it this way -- it's really cool that Brady is back!
I really truly love the summer, and I don't ever want to wish it away, but I'm so ready for some football.

P.S. The Patriots first preseason game is 8/13!!!!
So here's our first edition of Snappy Saturday, where we will post a photo of the week. One that we snapped.
This is a photo of a flowering crabapple tree. It looked like this for about one week, but it was the sweetest smelling week.
It seems sometimes that life is filled with chaos and busyness. So this is just a reminder to stop and smell the crabapple tree.
