The grass and weeds are getting taller, the Llamas are laying in the Sun, in fact they follow it around the field to get the most benefit. But we will be in trouble if the trees start to bud, we will get more freezing weather before Spring comes to stay. It still makes me feel good just to know it's coming. How about you, and for those of you across the globe Autumn must be starting also.

The weather here is starting to warm up too! The weather yesterday was lovely, just perfect. The winter didn't last long this year, but nevertheless it was freezing till it lasted lol anyway I'm so glad spring is around the corner. Probably my best season, and also autumn :)

Yes! Spring is around the bend, I tell you! It's about 30 degrees outside right now - here in Minnesota - it's been SUCH an incredibly mild winter. It's nice though, I don't mind it at all. . I'm excited to see GREEN again - green leaves, grass, trees, etc. Winter and the beginning of Spring can be so gloomy. Even fall. I am so ready for summer!

Honestly, for us, this winter has been rather anticlimatic to date. We were supposed to have a snow event over the weekend, but it never came into fruition for us. As I speak it is almost 50 degrees outside and the sun is starting to set. However, I have to say that I'm happy to see that spring is coming because spring if full of new life and more sunshine and those things always make me happy. Our grass is starting to grow and I've even seen a few buttercups already.

This has been a mostly comfortable winter. Granted not warm enough to keep the windows open for any degree of time and get some fresh air flowing right through the house. But still there have been times where I could go outside without a coat on. So that was rather nice. The poor birds are confused because of the weather, but that is just minor. Still if spring is coming, it is most likely that there is going to be some much hotter weather coming right now. I just am crossing my fingers and hoping that it is not going to be a hot summer this time around. Still as there is new life coming for the spring, new hope, and new dreams, hopefully the spring of 2012 will be a rather enjoyable one.

I am loving this mild winter myself. Today was another wonderful day. I cannot wait for spring either. I like the warmer weather. I also think we might get some cold weather before the winter ends, and I hope we do not get any snow.

We have not had much of a winter, but like you, I am sure there will be some more freezing temps. I hope they come soon, so that we do not get April snows. I can just imagine watching your llamas. Thanks for sharing that picture with us. It is like giant house cats looking for a sunny spot.

Hi savypat, I can't wait either,Spring has always been my favourite season, and I just don't enjoy Winter anymore. We have had a mild winter, more rain than snow, but I still can't wait for the first signs of Spring but you will probably see it a few weeks before we will here. Blessings.

Yes spring is coming soon here too. We been getting 50 degree weather and barely any snow. It seems to only snow and be cold on the weekends then during the week the temp rises to high 40's. Not complaining though we have had a pretty good winter this year a few days it got to 60 degrees. I'm ready for spring though I want the warm weather to come and just stay. Hope it happens soon.

I love Spring and to be honest, winter here has been much like it most of the time. There are tulips starting to bloom already. There was supposed to be snow last night...lol...my guess is there isn't any but I haven't looked out to see yet. It was 60 degrees yesterday.

Hello, I am outside DC. The weather here feels more like Spring than winter. We have had a very mild winter.

Yes, I will be glad when spring gets here. After leaving Michigan, moving to Alabama, I expected a warmer winter, I was wrong. It gets real cold here in Alabama. We do have some warm days, and the flowers begin to bloom and then we have a hard freeze. It's really crazy, warm and cold, no wonder people get sick. But spring will be here soon. And then I can sit out and really enjoy the sun.

This winter sucked :( no snow whatsoever. I'm very unhappy about that. I am not looking forward to the summer, I hate hot weather.
