Do you ever feel that winter is never going to end? We have felt like this and our winters are really very mild. Just cold and rainy. We get almost all the year's rain in a three month period from June to August.
After a wet and windy winter, however, Sunday felt like spring. It was warm and sunny and breezy. We were even able to dry the washing outdoors.
I finally got around to finishing pruning the roses (we have 16 in our front yard alone) and my husband took the younger boys for a bike ride along the river into town. They usually buy an ice cream once they get there but sadly the kiosk was shut so they rode all the way back again.

Today was cold and wet and wintry again but we have the memory of beautiful, sunny yesterday to remind us that spring is almost here.

I know I keep saying it, but he's SO CUTE!!!
I woke up on Sunday and thought "Oh my it's actually SUNNY!!!". And now we're back to 13C and rain all the rest of this week. I usually love winter, but I think my respite in a Colorado Springs summer has spoilt this one for me. I'm tired of the dreariness. And it has been grey and dreary.
Back in March we were all dreaming of colorful flower buds here in MA. Spring came and my little yellow rose bush is flourishing this summer.
Thanks for stopping in to say hi. :)
