hello spring

Hello spring! Hooray for finally being here... it seemed like a really long wait this year! I have been noticing some blossoming trees and plants scattered around the neighbourhood here and there... a pleasant colourful surprise during this very grey and rainy month. Hopefully the sun will come and make its appearance soon too. I am in need of some Vitamin D.

ps. new giveaway this month starts Wednesday!

Your picture is beautiful! I'm a new follower by the way. I think I'm going to like your blog from the few posts I have seen :) I bet Canada is beautiful! however having to wait so long for spring would be tough!!

Ugh, so jealous. One of my friends in Vancouver posted some photos on facebook of the cherry blossoms in Kits - I'm so jealous! We *just* got rid of our snow here outside Toronto, and we finally have some little crocus shoots poking out of the lawn. :) I'm dusting off my spring coat!

Your photos and your blog are always like a breath of Spring air. Even if Spring seems reluctant to make her full appearance right now...she will...eventually. :)

Yay! Happy spring!! :D Unfortunately it's going to get back down to the 20s and 30s here by the end of the week. I'm not looking forward to that!

I know, isn't it a relief that spring has finally arrived? Loving those cherry blossom branches. You're lucky out west to get a jump-start on spring... Muskoka is still pretty buried under snow. :)

Be sure to stop by and enter my Ramsign giveaway! :)

Yes, we've just started to see these blossoms here too! It was especially gloomy gray this year, so I have been waiting for the SUN! It's out today, at least for a few minutes between the clouds! Yay!
