    I always start checking for signs of the first little flowers pushing thru the leaves and drabness of late winter.

    I look forward to sunny spring days when we can play in the yard, eat yummy fresh veggies, and eat dinner on the patio. We live in Texas, so wew have really come to enjoy this as much as we can before the heat makes being outside less enjoyable.

    Already the days are longer and the crocuses are blooming as spring approaches (tonight!) But here on Cape Cod, I look forward most to the wind becoming a summer breeze. It has been howling all winter, and it will take all spring to change, but by the time the tourists arrive, it will be a gentle ocean fanning!

    My kids' activity levels! As soon as the weather begins to warm up I don't have to cajole (sometimes beg!) them to go out and play with me! I love the outdoors and think the best form of exercise is play(ing with my kids!) :)

    I can't wait to just be able to go outside and play in the garden or start playing with the kids at the park. I love Spring but can't wait for summer!

    We are vacationing in AZ. Yesterday we left summer in Phoenix and drove through spring and flowering trees in Sedona and on up to the Grand Canyon where it was very windy and too cool to enjoy being outside for 20 minutes. There were lots of small snow drifts here and there in the shade--so I call that winter. Spring is my favorite time of year and yeah! today is the first day.

    I'm looking forward to getting married this spring as the orchid flowers bloom brightly and the smell of green pine trees in Maui. I'm so excited to experience this beautiful event and surrounding with the people I love and cherish.

    As the weather changes I am looking forward to spending time at the park with my niece and nephew. It has been a long, cold winter this year (although I am usually a fan of winter, this year has been way too much!). Upgrading my photography knowledge and spending time with friends scrapbooking will also be planned in the upcoming months.

    We live on the coast-we can't wait to see the temps warm up and get back to our long, lazy summer days beach bumming it on the Atlantic!

    I so need spring to arrive this year! I love the shedding of the seemingly thousand of layers we put on to get through the winter, I love sandals and am so looking forward to putting the socks away, getting a pedicure( if i'm lucky)and kicking around outside in the fresh air!
