What a difference a week makes!

This is what our yard looked like last Thursday....

19 inches of snow and -15 degrees!!

This is what our yard looks like today...

(Yuck....don't look too closely at the gross retaining wall.  DH still needs to finish painting it!)

The snow is gone and it is 75 degrees out!  Amazing, isn't it!

On another note............

I said goodbye to an old friend last week and hello to a new friend.  Meet my old and new friends:

For more than 4 years, my love has been Miss Blackberry!  She has been a great friend to me, but like all things, she has gotten old and cranky!  Miss B has dropped calls, ignored calls, and not told me when I had a call.  So for Valentine's Day, my DH got me Miss Iphone!  Miss I is wonderful and it didn't take me long to fall head over heals in love with her.  Do you know that you can store a lot of photos on an IPhone?  I do because I just downloaded over 2000 photos to her!  (I do love my pictures!)  And did you know that you can "video chat" on her too?  I do because I have talked to and seen my DD and DGD on it!  So, goodbye Miss B and hello Miss I.  I hope you will be as good to me as Miss B was.
