Spring is in the Air!

It finally appears that spring is on it's way! We've had our spring winds for a few weeks now but I was beginning to wonder if our trees & shrubs would ever bud out or bloom. I was actually beginning to believe that the 50 - 60+ mph winds we've had had blown all of the life off of them!! The trees in town have all bloomed and there is lots of color and today, for the first time, I noticed a hint of color here at home. My crabapple tree is just budding out and I found two blooms that were almost ready to open. The lilacs are getting close to blooming as well. The aspen trees have cute, little, yellow-green leaves.
YAY for Spring!!!

When things are in full bloom, I'll take more photos and post them.
