Sunday Sunshine....

Was it Gorgeous in corner of the world
Sunday??
We couldn't have asked for a more perfect day!

 It felt so good to be out and working in the yard again.

 Brad pulled out the edger & got that done.

 ~Mom....stop!~
He also got Mallory cutting the lawn....
not sure she was happy about that!

 There's always lots of work to do after the snow melts!

 The pool cover has to be pulled off
and spread out to dry.

 This bush was sure vibrant yesterday!

 So were the forsythia!

 There was some work needed on the bike....
(which ended up in the trash)

 Relaxing in the grass she just "had to" cut!

I pulled alot of dead off the plants I felt would
 be safe if we were to get real cold again.
Good thing I left most of it for another day. 
 We got down to 29 degrees last night!
It still felt great to get out and work in the yard!
I just love these first days out!
How about you....
did you get a chance to work around your yard?

We even pulled out the porch furniture.
typically that doesn't happen until 
May!

My Bloomers....

Yep, we've had such Gorgeous weather here lately
temps between 84-86 degrees in fact
They say we were warmer then the
Caribbean
the other day!

So with the warm weather comes my
Bloomers....

 This beauty is right out our front door!
It flowers first, then it's done and is a big green bush.

 Here is a close-up of the flower....

 Then off to the side of the steps we have 
daffodils....
This one was laying on the ground,
so I picked it and brought it in and 
put it by my kitchen sink.

 Here are the others from the same bush
waiting to Bloom....
most likely today!

 This is a pretty little patch of violets....
weeds to my hubby.  
I'm sure he has already put something on them to make them
disappear!

 This is a wanna-be-a-bloomer....
This Rhododendron has to be at least
50 yrs old....maybe older.
It is Gorgeous when it Blooms....
Huge puff balls of Pink!

 Ahhhh....Yes, the Forsythia!
The first sign of Spring....
we have several in our yard.
These 2 are in the most shaded area....

 Well....
I guess Spring is here because they've
Bloomed!

And last for today....
Pachysandra....
little fuzzy white blooms.

What's Blooming in your corner of the world?

Tulips in my Basket....

 I just couldn't resist!
I was out and about yesterday....
I stopped in at Wal Mart,
I didn't see any daffodils
or hyacinth's
or tulips
in pots....
but, they did have
fresh cut tulips
so I picked up a couple of bunches.
 and a roll of Springy colored ribbon....
and made a bow

 I got out my wooden 
Bunny sign
that says
Welcome!
I couldn't wait to get it all
put in this basket on my 
front door.
I guess I hopped right over
St. Patrick's Day....
How many days are left until
Spring??
