Signs of Spring

Until I heard the news this morning and nearly fell out of bed at the word "snow" in the day's forecast, I was really getting excited for spring. Yesterday I successfully uprooted shrub #2/4 with some help from my four-legged friends. We had a fun afternoon hanging outside and can't wait for more days like it to come.

Blooming jonquils in the flower bed at the top of the driveway. Daffodils are just starting to pop open.

Daylillies near the creek are really growing quickly!

Sam loves being outside and is the best about it, too. Don't you love this pose with his lip all out of whack? It's normal for him....

Beeker also enjoyed his time outside, though he definitely would love to ditch the collar and leash. It totally cramps his style.

At the top of the photo is the area of brush that I cleared last week and where I got my poison ivy. I plan to plant some wildflower seeds in that spot.

This is the monster that I uprooted yesterday!
