Can I say enough times how much I love the spring?
It seems like everything just changes overnight...from the dreariest dead greys and browns to the brightest shades of green, yellow, purple, white and pink.  Truly a rebirth that restores your faith and hope for the future.


  Isn't it wonderful how Heavenly Father and Jesus planned that out?  Just when you think you can't stand another cold dreary day and look at the ugly dead grass and  bare trees any longer,  well you wake up to see little sprouts pushing their way through the soft earth, reaching towards the sun.
Don't know how anyone can really deny or question the divinity of the creation and Heavenly Father's plan for us.  All you have to do is look around to see how perfectly everything is designed. 
Anyway, it makes my heart happy and full of gratitude every year when I go outside and smell the blossoms on the trees and see everything coming back to life again after it's winter rest.

KC is awesome and tilled up the garden so we could get our peas planted.  (It was a pretty good wrestling match with that tiller, but I think he won.  I don't think that's why he was pulling that face...that's just the face he pulls when ever I try to take his picture)
Then he raked it all out and we were ready to go!
Peas and radishes planted!  Last year we had a great crop of peas and I was able to get enough to freeze and last through the winter. Hoping for another good year! 
The weather has been so wacky this year, you just don't know what's going to happen next.  It was snowing last Monday, now they are predicting record high temperatures today...close to 80!

Do you know what I miss in the Spring? Grandma's rock garden which is sad and bare now. Good thing we have memories! how great that your already planting peas!
