Okay ..... as many around North America can attest to, this week's challenge was a bit of a toughie due to Mother Nature and her wish to not cooperate. I know for me, I am tired of that wet, icy white stuff and just itching to get out and be wrapped in the warmth of those sunshine rays (with sunscreen on of course).
So, sadly, my photos this week are not good, in fact are cheesy. Both were taken yesterday in a moment where the rain had just finished up to take away the snow. And yes, the snow is back on the ground this morning with a nice fresh layer of ice on it too. The good news is that we are supposed to hit the double digits next week .... sigh .... it can't come soon enough for me!!
Yes - I am hoping that Mother Nature will take the hint with my sidewalk chalk graffiti.
A shot of our backyard that we landscaped last year. We went from trees and mud to a nice open, grassy, fenced in play area. And from the looks of it, the sod looks like it is starting to green up nicely!
That's it folks! Head on over here, to see what others have captured or if you would like to join in on the fun too!!

You are hilarious! The angle of your yard shot is really cool too :)
I'm sure the snow will get the hint! Your command is very authoritative (what with sidewalk chalk and all). Cute photo. Yard looks like fun too!
When I Grow Up
wow that grass is doing way better than our 4 failed attempts to get grass in our backyard.
However we do have double digit temps already. It is soooo great. jealous??? just come on over?
btw any tickets for June yet???
love your style. :)
and I am sure mother nature will respond with a nice little rain to wash your "demand" right away. :)
I love the way the colors in the background contrast with the grass. Nice JOB and I hope the sign works...please, please, please...
LOL if it works let me know.
Great job with the challenge.
Yes- snow stay away! : )

I AGREE WITH YOU...SNOW GO AWAY! Did you have to lay on the grass to get that cool angle of your yard? Fun play area!
I agree with the sidewalk graffiti!
Ha ha. Let me know how that chalk message demand works for you. Very clever! I love it.
The kids playing in the yard is wonderful.
i like sidewalk art :O) maybe the snow will take the hint - lol! thanks for posting - i love it!
my YOU CAPTURE post today includes drops, buds, and kitties. you are always welcome in The Shadow of the Cross. feel free to visit anytime :O).
Simple yet effective. We're quite the opposite--Colorado had NO SNOW all winter so I'm relishing our recent blizzards, with more to come!
But make no mistake: I would never survive those long Canadian winters!
the grass is green-ing nicely
You can tell the snow to move south for a few weeks ;) I'll gladly take a bit of white, instead of the cat/dog/elephant style rain we've been getting.
the yard shot is neat!
LOL! I like your message!
