Marching Towards Spring


Awake, thou wintry earth -

Fling off thy sadness!

Fair vernal flowers, laugh forth

Your ancient gladness!

~Thomas Blackburn, "An Easter Hymn"


I cannot believe that come tomorrow we will be in the month of March!  I'm getting excited over the change in season and cannot wait for the snow to melt and the green grass to start peeking up from the earth.   I also am excited for the Easter swap that I'm in and getting to know Jenny from Jenny's Heart!
Last night I came home from a great week with family and friends in Phoenix.   I had a wonderful time with everyone and miss them all already.  
Being in the company of those I love while enjoying some sights, sunshine and fun was just what I needed to get me out of the winter funk that tends to hang over my head when the bitter cold hangs on too long in Nebraska.  
I have a lot of nice pictures from my stay that I will share in a later post.   Have a great day!
