Wow, spring really is right around the corner! I feel like I should buy that groundhog some cookies (or nuts and bark). :) There is a pear tree right outside my office window and it is the first to bloom every year (and it smells horribly). I glanced out of my office window on Sunday after the rain had passed and noticed little bits of green growing on it. Happiness!

I waited until the sun peeked yesterday morning to take a few pictures. I tried all day yesterday to get these pictures up on the blog, but we had a little adventure with our dogs and instead I spent the day driving around to vets offices and running other unexpected errands. Ah, life with dogs.

I just wanted to share how I am so excited that spring is almost here! :)

For fun, I put a few of these full-res images online for you to download and use as desktop wallpaper if you'd like. Just click over to the gallery here.
