Spring has Sprung!

     Although Jack Frost may have other ideas about the weather, spring has defiantly sprung in Ohio! Daffodils are in various stages of growth and bloom, as are hyacinths, iris, and even a few long forgotten crocus in my front yard.
      Last Friday was absolutely beautiful! The bug to get out in the sunshine hit, and off Sarah and I went for a walk. We went down to Grandma Pam's house (she wasn't home though) and we played in the back yard. I checked to see what flower bulbs had survived the poor soil conditions, to be transplanted to our current home this fall. I have daffodils, Grape Hyacinth, and Iris. AND as an added bonus, the roots to  my rose are intact. There may still be a chace to save it! After our romp around Grandma's yard, I took my girl to lunch at Mcdonald's. (It was a special treat.). then back home to play in the dirt for a few hours! It was so nice we played outside again on Saturday!  I can't wait for more sunshine to come our way!
