SPRING HAS SPRUNG!

1

Spring has arrived here in the Northwest, and we are so ready for it! Our Thundercloud Plum tree in the front yard is in full bloom.  This is Rachel's tree.  She picked it out at the nursery as a little girl, and we brought it home and planted it in the back yard.  When we put the sports court in many years ago, it was transplanted to the front yard where it is much happier.

 It is so nice to have a little bit of color peeking through out in the yard.  Soon, my tulips will be blooming if the deer don't eat them first!!

My peonies and oriental poppies are starting to sprout in the garden, although it will be a month before any blooms will be visible, it is still nice to know the dreariness of winter is behind us.
