Spring is in the Air

Pansies and tulips from Ana and Scott

Visitors and the friends who helped us move were sceptical when I said that Mavis was still alive, just dormant. She did just look like a stick, after all. But here she is just to show off that she's alive and kickin.
This week Big Red also brought out the budding branch tips

And the girls have been loving hanging out on the deck for some fresh spring air.

But just to keep us on our toes, winter has not completely left us: tonight we're supposed to get a freeze and since I'm in VA again, I had to call Paul and have him bring in Big Red, Mavis and the tulips to keep them warm through the night.
