Spring is Around the Corner!

Spring is around the corner.

We keep catching glimpses of it here in CO but tomorrow they're predicting Snow AGAIN!

New Life!

This is the dead tree that I took my "Book" pictures on coming back to life!!

This will turn into an Aspen Leaf somehow....

Artsy Pre-Aspen Leaf!

I had these in my front yard growing up! Love it!

Dandelions mean: Summer's comin!!

The grass is slowly turning green!

 

Check Out Mary's Little Red House for more Spring Photos this Thursday!

Thursday's Inpiration: Tree

This was the tree in the backyard of  the house I lived in in University! I would love to have a Magnolia Tree in my future front yard!!! I actually took these 2 pictures below - just set up the camera and ran into his arms!

Thursday's Inspiration: Blue

Colorado has some cool looking birds.  I believe this is a Magpie.They are all over the area despite that Wikipedia is saying they're European or Korean, this closely resembles a Korean Magpie than any Magpie.

I see them more often up in the mountains....

 

.....but they fly around down here at the base of the foothills too.

They swoop and dive and are very fast birds!  Check out their beauty when they fly!

Disclaimer: This is NOT my picture.
When I get home I'll find more I took that are similar.

I have been in awe of these creatures since we first moved here!
Crow Family?!? My butt Wikipedia!!

  This is a beautiful, beautiful one of God's creature's!

Blue Bells at the Flat Irons, Boulder, CO

Thursday's Inspiration: Sky

This is the sky on my way down Pike's Peak in Colorado Springs this past August!! Can't beat that!

Here are a few others (and more to come) of the Colorado Skies! They are the coolest!

This was like a rainbow in the clouds! I couldn't believe it!!

 

 

Cool right??
