Spring In West Virginia

 Well...my mom does such a great job posting interesting and lovely things on this blog.  However, I guess I'd better stop excusing myself and contribute now and then.  I've been thinking about some things lately and hope to do several posts to pull my weight here.  :)  Seeing is believing!

We're getting our first blooms on our property.  It's very exciting because this is our first spring here.  Since we moved in December, everything has been a drab brown so far.  As the plants begin to wake up, I'm getting to see what is growing here.  I was pleased (as you can see above) to find some Forsythia blooming below the house last week. 
 The yellow is so cheerful!
And our woods have a delicate carpet of these tiny purple-white blooms.

What a pleasant surprise to find you had posted!! And the photo is lovely of the forsythia (and it matches the yellow daffy's at top). I loved seeing the new blooms, and can't wait to see them in person!

How fun that must be to see everything blooming for the first time to see just exactly what you have. I love your forsythia -- we still have nothing at our house. Last week it was snow all week and this week rain. But I'm sure spring will be showing itself eventually :)
