Signs

Finally there are signs that spring has arrived.  These tulips know it.  They opened right up to the warm weather we had this weekend.






The flowering trees are beginning to bloom.








 Fields are greening up.






Cherry blossoms are beginning to show.







Virginia Bluebells are gracing the garden with their delicate frills.






When the hummers return that is when I know spring has arrived at last.

Hoping all of you are seeing some signs too.

Have a blessed week.

"The angel said to the women, "Do not be afraid, for I know that you are looking for Jesus, who was  crucified.  He is not here; he has risen, just as he said.  Come and see the place where he lay.  Then go quickly and tell his disciples,  'He has risen from the dead and is going ahead of you into Galilee.  There you will see him.' Now I have told you."  Matt: 28:5-7 (NIV)

Chilly Palm Sunday


In spite of it being a chilly Palm Sunday the Lenten Rose graced us with her subtle beauty.   






To not be outdone the flowering quince made an early debut.






Those Pussy willows didn't seem to mind the chill;


 


neither did the honey bees.  It was good to see them buzzing about.  They appear to love  Glory of the Snow nectar.





Last but not least the frilly butterfly daffodils wanted to be a special part of the day's show.

Hope everyone had a wonderful Palm Sunday.  Have a great week!

Good


 It is good to be back.  I have missed all of you and am looking forward to catching up with everyone.

While I was resting the daffodils decided to bloom.  What cheer they bring after a long winter.



These small harbingers of spring "Glory of the Snow" always make me stop and smile.  What they lack in size doesn't keep them from being brave.  Even on a chilly morning their petals are open.


While on break found some extra time to do a bit of painting.   It was good to be back in the studio. 

 It is good spring is finally here.  Hope all is good with each of you.

Hugs!
