Spring arrived in such a way this year that we normally (here in the northeast) only dream of. Though we didn't see a single robin all day, she certainly did not disappoint.
Our day was filled with warmth and sun... there was a transplanting party for many indoor and outdoor plants... raspberry bushes dug up for friends... an early morning run for one of us (not me)... summer clothes unpacked from the attic... bike riding... basketball... baby spider plants in teacups... a clean, white coat of paint for my front porch plant cart... and as long as paint was on the brain, a fun splash of yellow for my porch table.
Oh, and three meals together at the table. That alone makes for a perfect day.
And in perfect spring fashion, there were flowers. Some given to me yesterday by friends and the others delivered to Emily from my sister. Her annual first day of Spring flowers (past years here, and here... it seems I did not post a photo in 2008, but indeed, they were here!). My Florida living sister remembers just how un-spring-like the equinox can be up here. So, she makes sure Emily has flowers despite there being very few growing in the yard just yet. Pretty sweet if you ask me... or Emily.
Happy Spring everyone!!
