Tennessee State Flower ~ Iris

Filtered through the Waterlogue app ~ The unseasonal heat has pretty much zapped our Irises ~ except for these which had the good sense to bloom in the shade

Within your heart, keep one still, secret spot where dreams may go. ~Louise Driscoll

Bleeding Heart ~ one of my favorite spring blooms in our back yard

HELLO, SPRING!

It’s about time, don’t you think?
“No winter lasts forever; no spring skips its turn.” — Hal Borland

A house with daffodils in it is a house lit up, whether or not the sun be shining outside. ~ A.A. Milne

Sun and warmth today, but I’ll need my daffodils/buttercups/jonquils tomorrow to light my house for some spring warmth when those arctic winds blow through. Spring always struggles to arrive.

S U N D A Y F U N D A Y !

The grand peeps, Elijah, Shelby and Knox, enjoyed some bouncy time on Knox’s big inflatable bouncy toy this afternoon in Knox’s back yard. They had a great time jumping and bouncing and rolling and wrestling and playing with Elijah and Shelby’s big purple ball.

Trying to get them to settle down for a few seconds for a group shot is like herding tumble weeds, especially when Knox is saying, “I’ve got boogies!”

After the ‘boogies’ were cleaned up, this was the best I could get out of them before it all fell completely apart.

Nothing cuter than kid feets.

Pile of Peeps!

I did get a cute group shot ~ Kelly, Knox, Shelby, Elijah and Holly

Knox brought me this pretty yellow crocus.

Then he took it back.

I shall try to explain this strange picture ~ the big purple ball got tossed across the yard and landed on something very sharp where it promptly exploded into two equal halves which Shelby and Grandpa decided to wear on their heads and look like the jelly fish in SpongeBob. True story.

Almost 70 degrees today. Great day to be outside under the sunny blue sky, soaking up the warmth. Great day to sit on the front porch and watch the world go by.

The color of springtime is in the flowers; the color of winter is in the imagination. ~Terri Guillemets

Remember Spring?   (A long-ago Dahlia from my back yard ~ painted with the Waterlogue app in iTunes for iPhone and iPad)  Happy TGIF!
