The 12 Days of Christmas at the Dallas Arboretum - 2015

Today, December 5, 2015, we visited the beautiful gardens at the Dallas Arboretum.  The weather was perfect.  Clear skies, no wind, and 58 degrees for an afternoon temperature.

As we were leaving - we saw some very beautiful clouds in the sky - they looked like angels.
