signs of spring

The gorgeous weather around these parts of the NW had me convinced that spring has officially started. Throughout last week and this weekend the weather has been spring-like. Days like these is when I get motivated to pack so much activities and projects in a day.

This weekend I started and finished two DIY projects. I also started spring cleaning in my basement. I purged some old furnitures, old clothing, knick knacks, boxed them up and dropped them to Goodwill. Took 400 some photos of items to list this week and also wandered around outside to look for some signs of spring in my yard...



I took this picture at about 5 p.m. yesterday...





these pretty little flowers are popping up everywhere...



elephant ears plant that reappears by my front entrance every February...



the Magnolia tree on the front yard...



I haven't seen the Bluejay but I believe he will be coming by very soon, and I'll have this bird bowl filled with water ready for him when he comes by...

  2. So gorgeous. Gets my heart beating to see those pics! We still have a couple feet of snow, I reckon it won't be until May that we see grass. :(
