This week-end was perfect.  There is no other way to describe it.  The weather was 80 and sunny and warm.  (Finally!)
I opened up the doors in the house to get some much needed fresh air flowing.  We also did some much needed yard work and turned on the sprinklers for the first time. It truly feels like Spring to me when you can turn on the sprinkles without fear of the pipes freezing!  But sometimes in Reno, you never know!  The only thing bad about thing about the weather is that next week they are predicting snow and a drop in temperature by 20 degrees! Why?!?!? I want to wear flip flops now! No more wool socks!!!

At least we got to enjoy the weather today with a little BBQ. Me and the hubby decided on a classic for dinner. Hamburgers on the grill! You can’t get much more classic than that.

We sat outside with our new patio table and enjoyed the fresh air.  When the weather has been cold for so long, a nice day feels like a true gift.  It’s hard to get stuff done because all you want to do is be outside and bask in the sunshine.

I hope that we don’t get any snow this week and that the weatherman is wrong!

Lately the signs of Spring have been everywhere. The trees are starting to bud, grass is getting greener and plants are coming back to life. It makes me so happy. At lunch today, I couldn’t help but capture a picture of the beautiful flowers.

Now if only the weather would start to catch up! I am in need of a nice 80 degree day! No more cold weather. I want to put my winter clothes away already. We had snow last week-end and it’s supposed to rain again this week-end. I really wish that we could have a nice day on the week-end and not on week-days when you are stuck inside at work.

The only downside of Spring is the allergies I get. My sinuses have been killing me the last couple of days. And talk about itchy eyes! I guess a few weeks of suffering is worth it though for nice warm days.  Oh I am seriously longing for some warm weather. Almost a year ago, we got married and were enjoying the beaches in Maui. I think back to that and wish I was going there again. Winter is just too long sometimes….
