Sunday beauty

It's 68 degrees this morning and just a little cooler than the past few days. I was asked to post some of the spring beauty around my home. Remember the dogwood tree with the knarly wisteria vine that I posted about here? Look at it now....................
This is my dogwood tree in front of my house...................
 Should be in full bloom for Easter.
My weeping cherry tree..............
My tulip magnolia has been hit by frost a couple of times but is hanging in there.....
 Forsythia or as commonly known as Golden Bell.......
 I bought this Japanese Maple over twenty years ago when it was only a foot tall.....
 Mama calls these 'Pink daffodils'. They are light yellowish-pink instead of bright yellow.
 I like to collect cement figures, can you tell?
Hope your spring is free of snow and cold!
Finished the baby blanket last night............

Your baby blanket is too cute! I enjoyed your spring pics, too. All I have so far are little green shoots here and there, on the ground and the trees. Won't be long now, though... :)
