Ch-ch-ch-changes

If a picture is worth a thousand words, this post might qualify as a thesis. It is a collection of random photos that I have been meaning to share. Hope you enjoy.

From the What-a-Difference-a-Week-Can-Make category, this is what it looked like near my house last week

In case you can’t read that date (my finger was a teensy, weensy bit cold and shaky), it is March 1, 2009.

Perhaps I should remind you that this was taken in Alabama. You know, the heart of the Deep South. Home of the magnolia, mint julep and mosquito.

Now, fast forward one week and here is what my yard looked like.

Today’s high was 83 degrees.

SmallFry picked a bouquet of daffodils for the table so we had a tea party for lunch.

Tea party at our house means sandwiches (today’s selection was egg salad, peanut butter with apple & raisin, and cheese) cut in small pieces served with hot tea. The lovely flowers made it a festive affair.

One final photo to share in this post. This is my kids’ latest craft project. Can anyone guess what movie my kids watched the weekend?

    Gorgeous daffodils. Our temperatures are dropping although today was a warm 30*C [86*F]. the cool evenings and mornings tell me we are definitely heading towards winter! *sigh*

    That is amazing–one week! Beautiful flowers, I hope it won’t be long before we see some around here. And that is an amazingly life-like rendering of the stay-puft marshmallow man. 🙂
