I am dreaming, anticipating spring too, although it is quite a ways off for us here. That is a bummer for me, as when I lived in Utah it came so much quicker and the tulips and daffodils were everywhere.
Those photos definitely put me in the mood for Spring! Glad to hear that you're finally getting some relief from all the snow you've had. I love snow too, but a few days of it is enough.

These pictures definitely have me dreaming now!
XO,
Jane
I am ready for warmth too Des and flowers:}
Spring SOUNDS so good but with a snowstorm heading this way..it feels like its forever away!! I am craving green grass and budding flowers!
I am dreaming, anticipating spring too, although it is quite a ways off for us here. That is a bummer for me, as when I lived in Utah it came so much quicker and the tulips and daffodils were everywhere.
Deserae,
It is getting warmer here every day, but I can't help but wonder if we still have rain on the way. Have a happy week.

Those photos definitely put me in the mood for Spring! Glad to hear that you're finally getting some relief from all the snow you've had. I love snow too, but a few days of it is enough.
Yup, ready for spring even though a snowstorm is predicated for tomorrow.
