Spring?

Just when you think spring has arrived and we might begin to see some color our hopes are dashed. We are having one cold week with 5 - 6 inches of snow on Tuesday and a high the last two days in the low 20's. It was a cold 3 degrees when I got up this morning. It is hard to be hopeful and suddenly find yourself back in winter. But hope is again in sight. We are supposed to reach the mid 30's on Easter.

(picture is of my parents old yard, this was the background that came up on my computer this morning and I found myself pining for green and more! I am tired of brown and white.)

And of course last weekend I planted my starter plants. Tomatoes, basil and rosemary seeds are sitting in cold dirt in my living room window wishing they felt like growing, but it is too cold to think so positively. This is what happened last year when I started my seeds as well. Oh well, I have eight weeks before I can safely think about putting them in the ground outside so they can take their sweet time starting.

Have a blessed Easter and enjoy time with family. We will be spending the afternoon with the families in our Bible Study group. The three oldest kids will be hiding eggs for the three youngest kids. It should be fun.
