T.T.T. - Visions of Spring

I am sure I don't need to tell you, but it's TUESDAY again... The time when I tell you 3 things that tell you way to much about our life!  Today I bring you glorious Visions of Spring for  Three Tangent Tuesday. Also - just a reminder that since it's tradition and we are all doing it you should go do it on your blog, now!!

1. That wonderful man that I live with brought me a springy surprise when he came home from work yesterday.  It was a never ending downpour in our little spot of the world so this bright bundle of flowers certainly brightened my day!  I think they will bring good Karma for non-stop sun.


2.  This funny little tulip is practically growing in the middle of our backyard all by it's lonesome little self.  It's so funny to look out the window and see it there all alone.  I love tulips though, so even if it is just one random tulip to look at, I'LL TAKE IT!
I went out to take a picture of the lonesome tulip in Ben's shoes.  They were the first thing I saw and I felt like I was a little girl all over again playing dress up in my mom's way-too-big shoes.  {Although I typically played dress up in her heels not her soccer shoes.} 


3.  The flowers in our side yard are really blooming.  I love pulling up to the house and seeing the flowers when I come home.  They have certainly lived through quite the beating from the rain and crazy spring weather!  
Another thing about that fabulous partner in crime... he mowed the lawn on Saturday.  There are perfect mower lines that you can't even see from this picture.  He is very serious about that.  His wonderful yard work made the flowers look even more beautiful!  
I know you are maybe a little tired of me saying it, but I am out of my mind excited for some nice weather!! I took a little break on the porch swing in front of our house today and it was SOOO wonderful {never mind the pajamas}.  Nice weather is coming - I am like a groundhog, I can feel it!!

Tulips are the best flower. They are my favorite also.

I am not suprised you are having such bad weather in Washington. You should really move to Oregon, its much nicer here. It must be that we are closer to the equater.

Your beautiful Oregon summer isn't too far away, which I am so bummed that we're going to miss this year.
