Thank goodness Spring is here!

The kids and I took a walk around the yard today, admiring new Spring blooms.

Here's a daffodil...





And some yellow jasmine, which happens to be our state flower...






And I can't remember what these are called, but they're shrubs that look similar to a crape myrtle, at least it's leaves do...






These are our blueberry blossoms. Every summer we get a ton of berries...






And this, of course, is a clover. #2 pointed it out, and I dismissed it, telling her it was a weed. She promptly reminded me that it's a flower nonetheless. She's right, of course.



Take some time to look at the beauty in your own yard...even the weeds.

Pretty pictures! Can't believe it's finally here. We had lots of spring storms last night here. Not looking forward to tornado season :(
