I love weekends.
My hubs works hard all week long, leaving him tired on most nights. Saturdays and Sundays are our time to reconnect and talk and plan and just be together.
This Saturday we started off early with a trip to the Riverwalk. Things are perking up slowly but surely around here, and Spring is popping her head in more often, letting us know that she will be moving in permanently very soon.
The buds on the trees are swelling, the willows are taking on a yellow blush, and the birds are everywhere, signing their favorite songs.
No leaves on the trees makes it possible to see what is hiding in the branches. Lots of interesting little homes up there. Is it a beehive? A nest of some sort?
(A couple of dark, blurry pics ahead!)
We had to rush a little at the end, because the wind seemed to be threatening to bring the snow our way.
The best part? We saw a newborn calf. For me, this is THE SIGN that spring is traveling our way. She is almost here!
