My First Magnolia

A couple of weeks ago I was walking outside and all of the sudden it smelled so good. When I looked around I realized it was a magnolia tree. These are the most beautiful blossoms they smell like lemons. They don't grow in Colorado and I felt so lucky to live here and experience them in bloom! I didn't have my camera so I picked one and took a picture when I got home. I just wish they bloomed all year, but then I don't think I would appreciate them as much!
