The First Day of Spring!

Today is the first day of Spring!  I think it's time to come out of hibernation....  
And shake off that grumpy attitude and layers of clothing and get outside!  Despite being windy and a little cool, that's what we did today.
After the winter that has seemed to last forever, I think we all can agree that we deserve to enjoy the sunny days, warmer temperatures and everything else that spring brings.  I just know that very soon Todd's favorite spot by the honeysuckle will be green with fragrant blossoms.
But first we'll have to get past the latest forecast that there "might" be more snow at the start of next week.
I just hope the weathermen are wrong, and I hope your first day of spring was an enjoyable one!

  3. I think we have not had any winter here in Miami. We have had hot summer days all year round. ARGHH. If only you could blow some of your cold weather our way. it would be greatly appreciated.
    Todd is such a cutie pie, whether he is sleeping or wide awake.

  5. We woke up to skittery snow this morning. That is just light stuff that blows around, so it didn't last! I hope thats IT though.

    Cheers and hugs to all the Golden Pines pups and peeps,

  7. Actually, today is the vernal equinox and tomorrow is the first full day of spring, but everybody wanted to celebrate today! I don't blame them. Winter was just way too long and brutal this year!

  17. Love your nice, sunny, happy pictures, Kim!!

    We did indeed have fresh snow when we woke up this morning but it's gone now. It's only supposed to get to 37 degrees today so that's not too warm but at least the sun is shining. We're supposed to have a cold weekend tho. *blah* Oh well... at least the 8ft snow mounds, on both sides of the drive, are history for this winter. For that I am grateful today!! :)

    Happy Friday!

    Love~ Andrea
    XOXOXO

  18. Adorable spring photos! Here in Finland we've STILL got snow, but well.. that's not a surprise here... I wish that it could even rain or it would come a bit warmer so the snow could FINALLY melt!
