Winter Be Gone!

After a string of substantially below-average temperature days that lasted more than two weeks, our area finally warmed up over the weekend. Yesterday it was 15 degrees higher than the historical average of 52°. Combine the nice weather with the first day of Daylight Savings Time today and I felt almost giddy.

This afternoon I decided to swap out the winter-themed art.  Gone is the snow-covered barn painted by Hubby Tony's great aunt:

It was replaced by a painting of boys flying kites in a flower-covered meadow:

Instead of this bare-branched tree with an angry winter sky that was in the living room:

There's now a colorful vase of flowers hanging on the hook between the windows.

Now the house looks much better.  Bring on Spring!
