Is it Spring?

This weather is bizarre! This past week, I've awoke in the middle of the night several times to see snow flurries. And each morning, we've had a light dusting that melted by noon in the revel of a beautiful afternoon with sunshine and warm degrees. Then suddenly yesterday afternoon, it began snowing again!! It snowed off and on all night. We had three inches this morning. By 9 a.m., we were down to dry roads and only an inch or so of really wet snow on the ground. Now, at 10:45 a.m., it's snowing again! Kevin is shoveling off 4 inches from our driveway as I type! And there is no end in sight!

To add to the craziness, we put out our bird feeders and planted flowers two weeks ago, and I just saw our first hummingbird return! I was so excited!! But then I saw that he couldn't get to the food through the accumulated snow on the feeder!! It's nuts! Meanwhile, other birds have flocked and eaten through a whole feeder's worth of food, and I need to trek out there to refill it so they can at least keep their bellies full, if not their feathers warm. :)

Collin Quote of the Morning: (as we're looking at the healing scab from a cement burn on his foot) "It's so stylish!" HUH?!
