I don't want to sugar coat it. Spring is my favorite season. It's that sweet spot between bulky coats and bathing my whole body in sunscreen. There's just lots of great reasons to celebrate.
Why do you love spring - or prefer another season? Tell us and you'll be entered to win a foldable Fire Pit - so you can enjoy relaxing outside any evening of the year. Plus, this version even comes with a carrying case so it's great for tailgating, camping, or just hanging out in the yard.
I moan over losing that extra hour during Daylight Savings Time, but when it's still bright outside after dinner, it feels like a blessing. The weather is great for long walks, bike riding, playing with the kids, or my favorite - relaxing outside with dinner and a drink.
Flowers are finally out of hibernation and everything is blossoming. I love to get my hands dirty and feel the satisfaction of spending time outside in my garden. But even if you don't like to dig in the ground, it's hard not to smile when you drive down the street and see buds coming up, bushes turning color, or even fresh-cut bouquets in a store window.
Good-bye wool hats and mittens. Hello to throwing on a light sweater over flowy dresses or jeans with a cute tee. It's time to switch out the closet and get rid of everything bulky.
No, the cleaning part doesn't excite me, but now that I can open the windows wide, I'm finding my inner Marie Kondo and making the house feel a little more full of joy.
It's time to head out for delicious produce at Farmer's Markets and Strawberry Festivals. Or to enjoy the taste of spring all year long, plant an herb garden. You can buy the plants at your neighborhood garden store, and keep them inside or out. Cut the herbs off as needed, and sprinkle them on whatever you cook for months. Easy peasy and delicious.

Tulips!!! They make me so happy!
Spring time brings warmer weather which I love and you can do more outside activities because of the weather
Love firepits and roasted marshmallows!
I love summer first and foremost. But I do love spring. I love sports season for my kids, softball, spring soccer, going to the Phillies games
I love spring because of the warmer weather and I love to watch the trees come to bud.
Fall is my favorite time of year! The colors are so pretty here in Michigan! and can't forget about Football and tailgating along with those cooler evening cookouts on the open fire! Smores anyones?
I like the warmer weather, but I like Fall better.
I love spring weather, flower blooming and more being outside.
to me, spring means longer, warmer days with more time to spend outside in the sun. I enjoy my bulbs and california poppies blooming, and i prepare my vegetable and herb garden. Our blood orange tree is producing, and we are sharing our harvest with friends and neighbors. Our avocado and meyer lemon tree is blooming. the iceland poppies are getting ready to bloom. Lavender and Rosemary are blooming - I use blooming rosemary as a room freshener and dry the lavender for sachets to use in the dryer with bed linens.
Spring has it all, sunshine, gardening, patio dinners, nature's cheery colors, 2 of my children's birthdays, mother's day, graduations, planning vacations, windows open and neighborhood kids laughing! Enjoying life, :)
Spring is the best season - warm sunny afternoons and cool nights - the best of both worlds!
I prefer summer!
I love the smells of the lilacs and other bushes and trees that smell so good!
I love seeing the robins pick at my yard looking for food! It means Spring is here!!!
wildflowers and cooler weather
