Backyard stirrings

The tulips and hyacinths we put in the ground last summer started poking out of the ground a couple of weeks ago.  Not exactly earth shattering stuff, but it's about all I got right now.

This photo was taken last summer, through our kitchen window. I shot it through the screen, which may account for the overall softness. We haven't seen the blue jays in our yard for some time now, but I hear them around and hope they will come back now that it's warmed up some.

Nate turned 4 last Friday, and we threw a party for him Saturday.  In case you missed it, it was a Batman themed party.  There were cupcakes, balloons, face painting, crafts and games, and pizza.  We had 15 kids over, and I think they all had a great time.
