Signs of Spring

See? I knew I'd be seeing crocus blooms soon! The yellow ones always come first. When they start to fade, there will be purple peeking out of the mulch and leaves. And finally white. Sometimes they all stick around together and make the little rings around the trees that much more colorful. That much more wonderful.

I was also going to upload pictures of the girls playing outside during the warm weather we had recently. But I won't. For two reasons:

1. I already ate seven thin mints waiting for this one picture to upload. If I upload more, I'll either have to open a new sleeve or sit here without stuffing my face, neither of which sounds ideal.
2. It is freeze-your-heiney-off-cold here again. The sunshine & light jackets we enjoyed in the photos have shifted back to wind and heavy coats, and it makes me a little sad. And that makes me want to eat more thin mints. And that, well, see #1.

I completely failed Blogging 101 this week. Not a single post for 8 days. I'll try to do better this week. But I make no promises!
