Bloomin' Tuesday

Spring has finally arrived at the foot of the Rocky Mountains! This last weekend the forecast was for 16 inches of snow in our hometown. Fortunately, spring snowstorms in Colorado are notoriously difficult to predict and we ended up getting just a smattering of snow and three days of rain. Yippee. That rain and the 70 degree weather they are predicting this week should green things up nicely!

Today I am featuring tulips for my Bloomin' Tuesday post. Our neighbor's garden across the street puts on quite a show in the springtime. They have planted hundreds of tulips in their front yard and those of us who live close by are the lucky recipients of their hard work. Here's a sampling of the beauty...

And just to keep things interesting they have thrown a few daffodils into the mix...
