They are only out of the ground by 3 or 4 inches...in April. The For Get Me Nots...well, are kinda forgotten at this time of year up north.

Spring up north?
Spring up north is really hard for a Southern girl like me. I talked to my mama today and she told me that even the Saucer Magnolias were blooming. Sigh...it felt like Spring today in MI. We had extremely unseasonable temps today in the low 60's! My huge snow piles are melting and I am itching for spring time after this frigid winter. Then reality hits...and hits hard...the photos below are from April of 08. It's only early March. BUT...funny that I posted pictures of the ducks the other day...Sissy tells me today that they were in our yard this morning! I truly think we will have an early Spring! Aw, go ahead and call it Southern girl wishful thinkin' after all, it is MI and will be in the 30's next week...a Southern girl can dream, right?
Do you see Maggie under the Yew? I said...smile Maggie and she did her best to grin.

Beautiful pictures...the ducks are so sweet! I hope spring comes soon for you. It was beautiful and warm today here in the Ozarks. I am ready for winter to be over! I thought I was the only one on the computer at this time on a Friday night...we're just sitting around, eating ice-cream and watching Hogan Heros reruns. I think we're too tired to do anything else!
Warm regards,
Wendy
I am not even going to tell you how warm it was here today.....75.....I know I told you.
What beautiful photos!
Warmer days are around the corner my precious friend.
Lovely photos! Spring is almost here! Hang in there. It is warm, here in Arkansas...today...however, I don't think is forcasted to stay warm.
Daylight Savings will make it seem more spring like. Maybe?!
Clocks Spring Forward Tonight
So Here Comes Spring
from Roberta Anne
We can Spring forward all day long and it STILL won't be warm and pretty here for weeks to come...sigh...It's 39 degrees today. Tulips bloom in MAY for the most part. Gals IN the south post spring pictures for me.
Yes, spring is on its way! It's beautiful to see all the signs that pop up here and there announcing it will be here soon "officially".
Many sweet blessings!
Gorgeous pictures! We had temps in the mid 70's here today and it was GLORIOUS! No complaints from this Southern gal! :)
I agree with Wendy, your pictures are beautiful. It's spring here in Oklahoma too. Thank goodness! Forsythias are beginning to bloom here. I spotted Hostas trying to peek out of the ground today.
Love your photos. Hang in there; it will be spring very soon.
Hi there!
I hope you get your early spring! We are all hoping for the same thing here, too! I was reading your earlier posts, and you sure do get cold, snowy winters! Yes, you definitely deserve an early spring! :) I love your duck pictures! :)
Thank you for stopping by for a visit to my blog, and for your kind words! Please pop over any old time! :) I had such a nice time visiting your blog! :)
Ducks have returned to our pond as well. I also saw a hawk yesterday. I believe the winters cause a more grateful appreciation of Spring. Don't you?
Hi there! Thanks for stopping by my blog.....our daffadils here in Virginia are just starting to come up and today in Richmond, we are supposed to see 82 degrees! yep, time to wash the snow crud off of the car...
I love to see the yellow bell bushes blooming (we've called them that for years). Spring is springing down here in South Alabama!
