Yesterday it was 6 degrees. Yes 6 degrees. The funny thing it it makes today's 10 degrees feel warm and we find ourselves saying thing like "Yesterday was 6 degrees, but today's not so bad.". I love the Midwest, but these are the times I do envy those of you in warmer climates just bit.
I needed a visual pick me up and a mental warm up 'cause this is kind of how I feel today.
I am dreaming of spring and warmer times.
I hope you stay warm today!

Gorgeous pics, Jennifer...I feel warmer already! I'm in Chicago and I had to laugh about it being warmer today! I guess we have been lucky the past two winters but that doesn't make it any less cold today. Keep warm!
ReplyDeleteXO,

I'm in the Chicago area, too, and I know just what you mean. Thanks for the dose of gorgeous spring dreams!

ReplyDeleteI guess that makes me feel better about our whopping 24 degrees here in St. Louis. Beautiful pics, it always makes me feel better to jump to spring early in my home as I get the winter blahs too easily after Christmas. Thanks or the visual warm up! :)

Your gorgeous photos warmed me up inside; I could almost feel the sunshine and smell the flowers!
ReplyDeleteLove the dogs :) And gorgeous pictures!! Our temperatures are similar, yesterday when I got up it said 1 degrees out! Sooo cold! I can't wait for spring too! xo Holly
ReplyDeleteIt is much warmer here in Texas than you are experiencing. It is brown winter time, though...just seeing the green in those pictures makes my heart pound a little faster.
ReplyDeleteI'm just across the lake in Michigan and brrrr I hear ya! Love the dogs in their cute hats :) Stay warm!!
ReplyDeleteDown here in Indiana we have the same thing going on... oh and I found out where our snow is... my sister in law's yard. Yep in her neck of the woods of NY they got 30 inches in just over 6 (yes SIX) hours yesterday. And to think they received 18 inches while we were in the December... Stay warm!
ReplyDelete(oh in your last picture.... do those bowls remind you of the ones that Chris Taylor, of Figgy & Grace, makes? they are truly wonderful!)
It's freezing here in NJ too! It was 10 degrees when I got up. I have to tell you I LOVE that first picture. I have a golden and I know what characters they can be so I love to see them "dressed up". Too cute!

For two days I have said (repeatedly)"I can't get warm!" These lovely pictures help shine a little warmth on my day. Thanks! melinda
ReplyDeleteWe are having a few days of lovely warm weather...I feel for you girls that are freezing!
ReplyDeleteLove the photos...especially the dogs. :)
Ahhhh, spring! It's a magical time of year which seems a LONG time off when the temp outside is 11. Love your pretty photos.
ReplyDeleteWere all crazy in Chicago..... Yep we sure are LOL! Funny how 14 feels like a warm spell!

6 degrees!? Oh my. I can't even fathom it. But then again, I'll be wishing I was in the midwest during our summertime. You know when it's a breezy 117 degrees in Vegas lol.
ReplyDeleteYour pics were just what I needed today! thanks!
ReplyDeleteHa Ha Jen I love the pictures especially of the dogs in their hats. So cute. Made me smile. Ohhhh I am here in Chicago too and dream of a beautiful summer day!!! We got spoiled with the mild temps in December. This is Chicago so each day is different!!! It is funny how today does feel warmer at 10 than yesterdays 6 ha ha!!!! Have a warm day. Thanks for the pictures it warmed my heart.

Oh goodness, those dogs look so cute! It's sooo cold here today. I saw that this weekend it's supposed to be about thirty degrees. I can't wait! That will probably feel like a heat wave. I love your collection of pretty, summertime photos...they make me want to move :)
ReplyDeleteHmmmph...up here in Canada dreaming of being that warm! ;) (-22 here today! and I even converted that to Farenheit for y'all!) I'm feeling very much like the lady in the pink hat...not too impressed...hurry up spring!
ReplyDeleteMy son who lives in Chicago said the exact same thing this morning. I live in Dallas and we are so lucky to be in the 70's yesterday and today. I'm from Kansas City but haven't lived there for years and I just can't take that cold anymore. Stay warm-I know spring is coming. I love the dogs :-)
ReplyDeleteJen, you will be envious, but I was out in my flowerbeds this morning, pulling some weeds & tending them a bit....at a beautiful 60degrees here in Texas.
ReplyDeleteBy the way, I, too, LOVE the pic of the dogs! Let us know if they are your furry babies. Stay warm and cozy by your fire.
Hugs,
Sandy
Jen... beautiful pictures! It is SO cold here in PA too. I am so ready for spring... dreaming of flowers. You have a beautiful blog and I am really enjoying looking through your projects you have been working on in your house. I especially LOVE your touches of yellow in your bedroom. So pretty.... and also love your paint color on the walls.
ReplyDeleteHave a wonderful weekend!!
xo Heather
Oh what loveliness! I needed those pics today! I don't love the cold weather at all - glad I didn't have to get out in it today!
ReplyDeleteGreat pictures..
ReplyDeleteLove the dogs..
