A little red to welcome the hummingbirds back:)

I couldn't resist picking up two hanging baskets this week. I'll be bringing them in at night for a couple weeks still, but it sure is nice to see some color outside.

Time for the hummingbirds & orioles to return

Now is the time to hang your hummingbird feeder and put out the oranges and grape jelly for the Orioles. Last year I saw my first hummingbird return on May 5th and the Orioles returned a couple days before that.

beautiful spring day

Finally the first beautiful weekend of the year.

The snow is melting!

The snow is melting and some flowers are actually still alive and blooming.

I think my flats of pansies I have been growing are ready to go out. I've never grown pansies from seed before.

Happy Easter!

Is it really Easter weekend? It is freezing and snow flurrying here today. My poor daffodils are stuck to the ground. The forecast does not look too encouraging for the next week either.
