Mosaic Monday: Happy Spring!



After one of the coldest and snowiest winters I can remember here at our Little Red House, it's finally Spring! Woo-hoo! We don't actually have daffodils outside yet, but here are some from my archives to celebrate the day. Oh, and a little pot of primroses, too. ;)

We have had an absolutely beautiful weekend, with temperatures in the high 60's, blue skies and signs of spring everywhere. On Friday, my daughter and I heard the spring peepers for the first time. Saturday brought beautiful red buds to the maple tree, and my husband saw a pair of ducks fly overhead. All are sweet harbingers of spring, and more precious than almost anything I can think of...

Happy Spring, dear bloggers!

    I can't wait for the Daffodils to bloom! It won't be to long now. Maybe 2-3 weeks. *sweet sighs*

    Happy Mosaic Sunday/Monday, Mary!

  23. Hi Mary,

    This is my first time to participate in your Mosaic Monday Meme, but I've been looking over your shoulder for a long time. I just got a new camera & finally feel like I have some shots worthy of sharing.

    That pop of purple primrose in the center of your mosaic is the perfect accent! I love yellow & purple together. It is the epitome of Easter colors in my mind.

    thanks for hosting this beautiful peek into other people's worlds.

    fondly,
    Rett

  26. Is it just that I am down here in Australia? Or is Monday Mosaic up way before Monday now?

    Maybe it's the downunder thing?

  38. Hi Mary, I love your bright and beautiful daffodil mosaic. We had snow yesterday in North TX and there's a cold wind blowing today; your flowers were a nice reminder that spring is on the way!

  41. Hi Mary...

    Happy Spring, my friend! Ohhh...your sunny yellow daffodils are just gorgeous and definitely a sign that Spring has arrived! Here in Colorado, we always have a long winter and I'm so ready for Spring. Our temperatures are on the way up and I noticed that my daffodils have their green finally peeking through! Ahhh...maybe soon!

    Thank you so much for sharing your fabulous photos with us...your photos are always such a treat! And...thank you for hosting Mosaic Monday, my friend! I really enjoyed participating this week!

    Happy Spring...

  45. I love the purple primrose elbowing its way into the center of the scene!
    We have crocus, no daffodils yet either. Hooray for spring -- I am even OK with this rain today if it means more green shoots.
