Spring...with a call of snow for Monday

Yesterday, I planted our starts for the garden and they are now incubating in our back bedroom. I am excited to see the plants pop up through the soil.

We hope to have even more food from our garden than last year!  We've planted yellow squash, zuchini, hubbard squash, eggplant, peas, beans, heirloom tomatoes, cherry tomatoes, 2 types of basil, cilantro, sweet peppers, hot peppers, beets and more.

Yesterday afternoon, the news announced that there is a forecast of snow for Sunday night!  Luckily, we have just planted these little seeds in start flats and didn't plant them directly in the soil.   Hard to believe snow is in the forecast, we've been enjoying some beautiful sunny, spring days.

Our tulips are rocking right now!  It is so cheery to see them as you arrive at our home.

Below is a picture of Maddy and Shelby playing.

Maddy has been getting out and seeing some other friends, but I do think she misses having another dog to play with when she's just hanging out at home.  Seeing the two of them play together makes us think of getting another dog!  But, one is plenty and she has loads of friends to play with so she will remain in a one dog family.
