Signs of Spring

| Allison

 

Ahh, it is SO nice outside. 🙂 I can’t believe how warm February has been! Today I went outside and snapped a few pictures of some spring things, including some gorgeous daffodils that have popped up lately.

I looove daffodils, don’t you?!

This looks like it might be a double daffodil.

AHH I absolutely love how my new camera makes the background blurry like this!

The sunshine feels (and looks) wonderful.

Pussywillows are such adorable plants. (If plants can be adorable… XD ) They’re so fuzzy! My grandma gave us a bouquet with pussy willow twigs awhile ago, and we left the twigs in the vase until it grew roots. Then we planted them, and, well, you can see that the experiment was successful. 🙂

Okay so maybe Maggie isn’t really a sign of spring, but she’s still a cute model. 😀

BWAHAHAHAHA! This picture cracks me up. XD XD XD Maggie always makes this weird grimace when she scratches her ear. 😀

And on that hilarious note, I shall end this post. 🙂 I hope you enjoyed it! Which was your favorite picture?

Does it feel like spring where you live?

P. S. Bleh, my whole family (except Megan) either was sick, is sick, or is getting sick. 😦 I was sick already, but I think I’m getting over it now. Phew! It seems like practically everyone is getting sick all of a sudden, despite the spring-like weather. :/

  7. Oh, daffodils are so pretty! We have some, but I don’t think they’re out yet. I’ll have to check sometime. 🙂
    Yesterday was such a warm day, but today was really windy and chilly. And there were even snowflakes in the air! It was mostly just windy, though, which interferes with our TV reception(that’s only important because there are lot of college basketball games on today). 😉

  8. I loved this post, Allison! My favorite pictures were the ones of the daffodils, but Maggie is adorable too! 😉 I’m so sorry that you and your family is/are sick, I will pray for you to feel better! 😀
    Well, we consider 40’s warm weather, so sort of springy! But, we’re still melting 4 ft. of snow, LOL! 😛

  10. Beautiful pictures📷
    I think where I live, in the South, it skipped spring…it feels like summer☀️
    Just kidding!! Although, today felt pretty warm to me!!
    But, for real, birds are chirping, flowers are blooming, and no more cold days. Sounds like Spring to me🌷🌻🌹

  14. Gorgeous! I’m looking foward to Spring, but at the same time, I’m really enjoying snow :). It’s actually been really warm and nice here this week, it’s felt like winter! But it’s supposed to snow in a couple of days, so winter will be back :).

  18. Just beautiful, I love this time of year, so much new life all around. We encountered a beautiful pussy willow on our walk yesterday, the first one I have seen around here, the buds were all open and it was attracting all the bees, hard at work in the spring sunshine. Makes one happy to be alive. Have a lovely Sunday

  21. You got some wonderful photos, Allison! It’s cold here again but still nice and sunny. My mom says all this changing weather is hard on our bodies, which might be why you guys are sick. 😦 I hope you feel better! Being sick is NO fun. 😦

  25. What pretty pictures Allison! I just got a new camera last month and I’ve been snapping pictures like crazy! It’s so much fun!
    Sorry to hear that your family is sick. I hope all y’all start feeling better soon. My family has been sick a lot lately. We just got over a really bad stomach bug and about a week before that we were all getting over colds. Hopefully we’ll stay feeling better! 🙂
