My little hand painted Easter Bunny pendant. He's so sweet and leads us right into spring with his smile. He knows warmer weather is coming, I can tell.
We started feeding the birds on our patio this winter. I have to admit, it was just as much for Lucy as it was for the birds. She's an inside cat but the closer I throw the seed to the house, the happier she is.
My second sure sign of spring. These are the tulips I brought back from our trip last summer to Amsterdam. If I could only bring one thing home from Holland it would be a tulip bulb. But luckily for me, I was able to bring back four bags :). I shared one bag but kept the rest for myself! I couldn't resist, I'm weak. Their colors remain a mystery. These should be either white or pink. But as long as they bloom I'll be oh so happy.
Ducks! These were our visitors today. Or I should say, only two of many that roamed around our yard and neighborhood. There's a pond down the street so spring usually brings the excitement of ducks into the yard. I wonder if any will have a nest by our house? I'll have to take photos of the turtles this year. They come every spring and I'm sure they'll be coming around again next month. Last year we had four turtles lay eggs in our yard. We still can't figure out why they like it here so much. Did you notice our snow is pretty much gone? Twelve inches on Sunday and by Friday it disappears! Just in time for Easter and Easter egg hunting. Happy Spring!

LOVE your Spring pictures & stories. Your Easter Bunny is so unique, couldn't be sweeter!. Keep the photos coming (especially of Lucy, the family cat) Happy Easter, Happy Spring!

Happy Easter

Even though we have to look hard, it's great to see these early signs, isn't it? We spent two weeks in France in March and had horrendous weather--snow, rain, and cold. Oh so cold for March! But here, in Kansas, the grass has started greening up and leaves are about to sprout on our crab apple trees. Can blossoms be far behind? I've even seen some daffodils blooming. Everything is much later than usual for our part of the world, but it will happen. Spring is proof of hope and we hope it will soon be spring!
ReplyDeleteLove your almost Springtime pics. Lovely to see Lucy enjoying the view. So sweet!
ReplyDeleteYour tulips peeking up say, it won't be long to warmer days.
Love your darling pendant.
Thank you for stopping by. Have a great week.
