I looked out the window and what did I see...

...popcorn popping on the apricot tree! We don't have an apricot tree, but we do have a Snow Crab and it was beautiful and white with blossoms this week. It smells SO good - I especially love having my kitchen window open this time of year, or sitting on our front glider in the evening when all the bees are gone. Unfortunately I didn't get a picture before the winds yesterday blew away most of the petals, but I did get a video of Brailee singing this fun Primary Song. She can usually sing the whole song all the way through but this was the best I got on video the other day ;-P





This is what else we have been seeing out our window lately - there are two little bunnies that like to hang out in our yard - as long as the kids are inside!



And while I'm talking spring, here's an update on the nest - the baby birds hatched while we were gone this last weekend. The girls have enjoyed watching them and so far Mommy bird is okay with us being outside and walking by. We try to stay off the porch so she can take care of her babies. And does anyone know - do the mom and dad both take care of the babies? It seems like there are a couple of robins going back and forth.

Ahhh, I love that primary song. One of the best out there. Love the picture of the robins in their nest. How neat for you all to be able to be a small part of that.

I can't remember all the words to "Popcorn Popping on the Apricot tree". But I think the same thing when I see the trees with blooms on them. Love your pictures.
