Signs of Spring...

THE FLOWERS ARE BLOOMING!
I was impressed at this picture. I feel like a pro! ha ha
This is my flower garden. I love flowers, I love the bright happy colors and the feel of new life! So, now that my flowers are starting to bloom and there is a small sign of spring, I thought I would document it! Also, my companion in "Spanish Crime" (Sachi) reminded me that spring-time is a great time to think about the Savior and the real meaning of Easter. Christ is our hope for new life. Through His Atonement, we can be made clean, whole, and new again! All we have to do is put our trust and faith in Him. So during this week of Easter, take time to remember our Savior, who was and is perfect, who died on the cross for each of us, who loves us more than we can comprehend!
This is my first tulip of the year! It opened so big!
