Signs of Spring...

Posted in Spring

Today has been a beautiful day! The past few days have really looked a lot like SPRING! Here are a few of the signs of spring we have seen at our house...

Spring doesn't look like this in the Windy City! Did you get a new camera or what? Love your chores too.

Oh! I want a sunflower house. It's things like that that make me want to stay in my house and little acre instead of RVing. Looks like fun!

I can't wait to see your sunflower house. I saw directions for on in Family Fun last year, but we don't have enough space for one here.
You're weather is beautiful! I can't wait until we have some warmer temps.
Did you find your camera? Get a new one? I would be lost without mine!

Oh Candace, your pictures make me long for warm weather here in Minnesota too! We are still looking at snow outside our windows after Monday's snow storm. It should hopefully be gone by the weekend when the temps reach up into the 50's but I am anxious to get out and explore our new property without mud boots on and slush everywhere.

We have the same water table too. :o)

Love, love, love your sunflower house. I can't wait to watch it develop.

Blessings,
Theresa
