Is it Spring Yet?

Yesterday was a cold, blustery day. The kind of day where it wouldn't really be that cold, but the wind just cuts right through you.

So in the afternoon while the boys were napping I found myself on the computer, looking at photos from our vacation in Tucson over Christmas to warm myself up.

Can't you just feel the heat?


This next photo is one of my favorites. I can't even remember what kind of tree it is, but I think it's lovely. Could the sky be more blue?


Anyone else ready for Spring and a little bit of warmth and sunshine?!

    I know what you mean! Although the past couple of days have been in the 70's, the days before and ahead are full of cold air and that terrible wind.

    Here's hoping Spring comes sooner than later!!

    weather in CO this winter has been bizarre--some days really warm, and then others cold.

    Yes, I'm ready for spring! We got some warmth here yesterday & it's spoiling us - maybe the groundhog was wrong after all. ;)

    Beautiful. I am so ready and the weather is not helping. It has been really mild here but snow and cold are on the way this weekend.

    We've had such warm weather for the past few days and I'm so not looking forward to the freezing temps heading back this way over the weekend.

    I so can't wait for spring.

    I am really missing Phoenix and So Cal right now. To have an 80 degree day would really brighten my spirits!

    The tree is a china berry. The berries are very hard in this picture with the leaves all gone. They are very dangerous as they fall on the sidewalks because they are like little marbles.I have a necklace made from them.

    You are the third person I know who is going to Tucson. Do you have family there? Sounds wonderful and inviting!
