Blooms from our Yard

I always poo-pooed people who said that Wisconsin was colder than Chicago, but let me tell you, they are right. It's not much different, but at this point, we could use some warmer weather. It's 45 degrees right now. I don't mean to complain. Really I don't. But I'm ready for a little 70 degree weather (my favorite -- and then I'll be super happy that Wisconsin is colder than Chicago because man, does it get hot). Spring seems to be about a month behind here. Just this week, these two trees in our yard bloomed. And since we don't know a thing about trees, and can't predict what they are supposed to do, it's a bit like Christmas.
