Wow! Just like that spring has Sprung! And not a minute too soon if you ask me. We’ve had a couple of days that we’ve got some small rain showers to clean off the leftover dirt from the snow and it looks like we’re ready to get out the shorts and short sleeve shirts! Yea!! With all this spring talk that I’m doing, I’ll show you a couple of pictures that I took to prove my point. The first one is that of Daryl. He started to plant corn on Wednesday and is hoping to get it all done by this weekend. It’s been working pretty good for him so far (keep your fingers crossed) and that would be so great if he could get it all planted without any issues with the planter or weather. Sometimes the monitor doesn’t work or the ground is too wet. You know … just stuff. So here is the first picture of spring that I have to share with you

Now the second sign that spring is here is that I actually got around to getting my garden seeds planted. I know that I said that I wasn’t sure if I was going to plant the garden, but I seriously couldn’t stand it that the greenhouse was there and honestly looking a little underused. So this past week I planted way too many tomatoes and some flowers. I’ll use the flowers as fill ins but will need to get more for all the flower boxes and areas that will use them. Here is my second picture that spring is here – check it out.
I REALLY did try not to plant too many tomatoes!
Of course another sign is that the dandelions are coming up in full bloom
And for my last sign. Well this is definitely the cutest one of all! I picked up my chickens tonight and while I was there had to literally keep telling myself that we for sure DO NOT need any ducks, geese, turkeys, or whatever else that was just hatched yesterday at this hatchery. But man oh man they were cute! Here is a picture of everything that was just hatched and waiting for their new owners to pick them up.
Ducks, Chickens, Geese, oh my!
These are one day old ducks wondering what this big person was doing with something that flashed in their faces – aka my camera!
1 day old ducks just hanging out looking pretty darn cute!
So finally the best picture of spring is one of the little chickens that Kyle took for me while they were waiting in the living room when I was getting their temporary housing set up in the chicken house. Not only is this the last picture that I’ll share today, but it’s also the Picture of the Day. Very cute!
