a lovely foreshadowing of things to come

I know these cute little crocuses don't stand a chance of survival, given that we still have at least a month of winter left, but it's still a welcome sight and an exciting indication of what's ahead.

We've enjoyed a couple of days of weather in the 50s and have been doing our best to take advantage while it lasts.




















I had almost forgotten how great it could be when the kids would spend all afternoon outside. Now I remember. It's really great.

Happy happy birthday- glad you made it a special one! How nice to have sisters spoil you with homemade bags and Sunday dinner:)!
Also- yes, LOVE that they can play outside in great weather, however not loving the sand that they bring back in with them...
