Spring inside but not outside

I am so ready for spring that I decided to pick up a little something for the house to make me feel better about all the miserable snow outside.

I was at Trader Joe's over the weekend and they had all these great potted plants. Lots of tulips and daffodils in pretty pots. They also had hyacinth, I never knew what these flowers were called but they smelled WONDERFUL so I went with it.

My favorite smell in the whole world is still the orange blossoms back in AZ but hyacinth is now a very close second! The plant makes it feel a little more like spring is coming but I know in reality there is probably still at least another month of this freezing cold...bummer.

He's a Natural!

He did it! Greg went snowboarding with me! Here he is, all smiles, before the "fun" begins. For any of you who have learned to snowboard, the first day is not typically a lot of fun. You spend a lot of time on your butt and sometimes it can be a little painful.
Greg took a quick lesson, and was going down the hill in no time!!
My hubby was such a good sport! I'm so glad we finally got to do this together!
