BRRRRR!!!!!

Here are some photos around the house that look as cold as it feels out there! We're ready for Spring already!

This is our favorite tree, called a Deodar Cedar.

Some neat grass V's parent's gave us...
This is a Canadian Hemlock tree. I love this tree, but I wish it were bigger!
Some Eastern Bluebirds were scarfing down the berries on our Holly shrubs. They inspired me to fill up our bird feeder with bird feed, so we now have lots of birds in the backyard. You can click on this photo to see their colors better.

This is a Japanese Laceleaf Maple. It has beautiful, weepy leaves most of the year. It will never get very tall, but it will get a lot wider. It's a VERY slow grower.

Here are the bird tracks after I put some bird feed in the feeder. These little tracks are all over and around the deck in the back yard. I also saw some kitty cat tracks. Does anyone know how to keep a cat out of your yard? Our neighbor's cat climbs over our fence all the time, probably trying to nab one of our birdies!
So what do you do when it's so cold outside? Alphabetize 100 DVDs!
