The crazy Texas weather is driving me nuts. Anyone else? It's like we keep getting teased with a touch of spring and then here comes another "Arctic blast" as the weather folks say. 

I tend to get down and feeling a little blah in the winter, when the cold, wet weather comes around and won't leave. And I'm not too fond of the early darkness in winter either. I long for the days of 80+ degrees, six-month long summers, soaking up the sun in my boat and enjoying daylight until nearly 9 p.m. Luckily, it's not too far around the corner.

After a few nasty, wet days last week, the sun finally came out for a while. I felt like I could breathe again. Our tulips and daffodil bulbs started blooming and I couldn't resist taking a few photos to share. The flowers reminded me of a quote by Ralph Waldo Emerson...

"The earth laughs in flowers."

Hope the beautiful colors of God's creation will bring you a bit of light as you await springtime.
