The Pixie Chicks and other signs of spring

I call these these the Pixie Chicks:

This photo is from a few weeks ago when we stopped at my neighbor Pixie’s house and the kids enjoyed her chickens. We are loving that spring is hopefully here to stay. It IS May, after all. But spring in Central Oregon is 70 degrees one day, hailing one inch stones the next.

Here are some more harbingers of spring around our place:

The snakes are coming out from hiding, and my daughter is there to catch them.

The grass is getting green and the long shadows of the afternoon are pleasant.

How is spring turning in your part of the world?

    It’s green and yellow and pink and red and…..the spring colors are bursting through. It’s been a long time coming and I’m loving every minute of it.
