~Daffodowndilly” by A.A. Milne.
She wore her yellow sun-bonnet,
She wore her greenest gown;
She turned to the south wind
And curtsied up and down.
She turned to the sunlight
And shook her yellow head,
And whispered to her neighbour:
“Winter is dead.”
I’m just a little early to welcome Spring but it is one of my favorite seasons. The other favorite is Autumn. I’m hoping to find some daffodils while we are on a little overnight or two in our neighboring state. These daffodil photos are from March of 2016. We sisters got together for a couple days of adventuring around La Conner for a nice meal and the Mount Vernon (Skagit Valley) area to enjoy the fields of daffodils. This area would soon (April) be filled with tulips!
I keep harping on my sisters that it is time for another sister weekend. Maybe in Dallas or Arizona??
This week is to be one full week of celebrating the oldest and one of the youngest in our family. Addy will turn 7 this week! All our kids will be arriving the end of the week for a extended weekend of fun. Greg and I are enjoying the first couple of days in Coeur d Alene, Idaho. A lovely destination where we can enjoy nice walks along the lake and also enjoy a variety of restaurants for some good food.
I will be hit and miss online for the next few days.
Are you excited for Spring?




The field of daffodils are beautiful. Happy Birthday to Addy!
Enjoy your getaway! Take care, have a great week ahead.
…someday, I’d love to see a scene like this!
Yes! I am excited for spring. Actually, I just realized that you and I share the same two favorite seasons…spring and autumn. ”
Enjoy your time away and I know you will enjoy having the family all together for the birthday celebrations later in the week. Hard to believe that Addy is turning 7!
Dianna, It is shocking to think that it has been 7 years already. God is good to us in letting us enjoy our 2 Grands!! We are enjoying temps close to 70 here at our getaway in Idaho! Blessings!
We haven’t been to a flower field in years. I like the flowers in Carlsbad, CA. Of course the poppies are also awesome when they happen. Have fun celebrating the birthdays.
Debby, those poppies are so pretty!
Adorable flowers! Just stunning!
Oh Ellen! The daffodil fields are stunning. I look forward to sharing other bloggers early spring photos because as I have probably told you every year for way too many times, it is a season that doesn’t happen here in sW Florida. So I loved the early reminder. Enjoy your time away at the “Lake City.” Sallie
Thank you so much, Sallie!
Gorgeous photos of the daffodil fields!
We are still under snow in Colorado. I planted 100 daffodil bulbs when we moved to Colorado because unlike tulips, the deer don’t eat them. But, low and behold, between the squirrels and the rabbits, almost all the bulbs have all been eaten!
Happy birthday to Addy! Enjoy your time away!
Thank you. We had a marriage conference at our church this past weekend and our speaker from Colorado almost didn’t make it because of the dump of snow! Sorry about your bulbs!!
Wow all those daffodils are beautiful and amazing.
Also amazing that Addy is going to be 7 already. Happy Birthday to her!!!
Gorgeous daffodil fields! I love the change of seasons.
