what a lot of rain and a few very warm days will do...

columbine with buds...

new growth one of the roses...

columbine blooming...

before the tulips can even fade, the rest is growing up and spreading out...

so much green...

one of its last days...

my father in law would have loved these...

he was partial to the two toned tulips...

grabbing some sun...

the neighbors lilacs...

she has two bushes in front that were marked 'Yellow'...

I kid her about what color yellow is that?

so while she was camping, I got photos...

one of the front beds...

my lilac that I transplanted the shoot right before the big flood took my full grown lilac...

the cats are sleeping in here...

but look at the ferns uncurling around it...

in a month you won't even see it...

lily of the valley really grew this week...

lilies in the back...

asian lilies...

mine are pink...

and the clematis...

will have so many blooms on it this year...

I really think I need to get another one...

the rain is here, so inside jobs will have to get done...

need to wash those lace panels and hang them up to see how they look...

a fridge to clean out...

dusting, mopping and just putting things away...

bills to pay and naps to take...

that's going to have to be the excitement for the day...

and one more day of babies...

there are three anxious little boys who need them...

hope you are not getting that snow that some have now...

but if you are, just spend some time here...

its warmer and a lot more green...

have a great day and get your plans made for the weekend...

its coming on fast!

;)
