Look...Flowers

Spring is here! Do you know what these pictures are? They are flowers...in my yard! O' and all the snow in my yard is gone now too! Yeah!
I have absolutely no idea what this flower is, yet they grow every year in purple and white all over my yard!
This is a Hyacintha (?) I planted two bulbs a few years back, and this is the second spring they have sprung. I am so excited. Today it was 65 degrees out, sunny, and most of the snow disappeared. (O' sorry I already mentioned that, lol)! Anyway, tomorrow it is supposed to be 50 with a chance of rain showers. We desperately need the rain, fire danger is very high, and there is a burn ban going on. At least the rain will help the trees bud, the flowers bloom, and the grass turn green. Plus the gardens are easier to work in after it has rained, not so compressed.
Keeping it short and sweet today! Happy Friday! :)

NLSM: Why that is a White Crocus, they are the first flowers to signal that spring is here. They also come in purple and yellow. They can lay under the snow for a short time and still put on a show.
