This looks like fun! I enjoyed reading your post :>)
My middle son is a college student. He’s thrilled about the dresses and shorts (he’s a leg man) showing up on the girls ;D
We’re in northern CO and have had some gorgeous days over the last week, but will probably have cooler weather by the weekend. In the meantime, we’ve got 70 degrees!
Decorating with bright pops of color!! In fact, I just blogged about this, I’ll have to add myself to Mr. Linky.
I so can’t wait for Spring.
wonderful post. we had a few warmer days yet, but not enough. hope there will be more, soon.
Hmmm, I’m looking forward to seeing those first few flowers and green blades peeking up through the ground.
Also no more school snow days for the kids-lol.
Enjoy your day, Melissa!

I loved your list! …especially # 11!!! I would add:
flip-flops
Lemonade!
More salads and less soups
Puffy White Clouds
A new Springy-colored polish for my toes
Wisteria…mine are blooming!
Excellent list! As a Las Vegas resident who strives to live simply, here’s what I would add to the list:
1. Driving with the windows down.
2. Wearing peep-toe shoes when people in the rest of the country are cursing their boots
3. Planting my garden by St. Patrick’s Day.
I know your post was written some time ago, but I just added my list from this year . . . 50 things to do while we await spring. I just moved from Seattle (where spring comes early and is long) to Chicago (where spring comes late and is short.) This signs of spring are finally coming, even to Chicago. I saw my first crocus and robin yesterday. Yahoo.
