Spring Beauty

{adsense}

After a lousy fall and a somewhat dreadful winter, we are having the most amazing spring ever in the Twin Cities.  Isn’t there some way I can get time to just STOP for awhile?  I want to enjoy the beauty of these spring flowers for more than just a fleeting week or two. 

My neighbors tulips are so soft and pretty on the way to the bus-stop in the morning…

And so bright and cheerful at pick-up time!

Our crabapple tree is literally bursting with blossoms.  I just want to eat them up!

Here’s one way you might save the spring beauty for awhile.  Betz White created this lovely pussy willow tree filled with brightly colored, felted-wool pussy willow buds.  Make one for yourself!

The 4 seasons are wonderful and all….but wouldn’t it be nice to keep spring around just a little bit longer?
