Springtime is Here!

Yay! Spring is here!

Tell me what Spring means to you!

Spring means to me:
Taking the kids to see the baby animals.
Every year at Hancock Shaker Village they have the Baby Animal Exhibit. I've taken my kids for the past 2 years & they love it. They get to get right in with the animals & pet them. There is many other things to do there as well. If you click on the link it brings you to their website.

My oldest 3 w/my sister & her 2 kids. You get to dress in the clothes the shakers wore back in the day. The kids actually loved dressing up!

Spring means Easter time! Yeah, I know, I go a little overboard! Oh well...

Spring means beautiful flowers.....



Spring means the girls annual dance recital!

Spring means Memorial Day Weekend spent at the campground where my mom has a seasonal campsite.

Spring means Lauren's birthday is coming up. I can't believe she'll be 14 this year!

Spring means fun times @ the playground!
And spring means the start of being able to go to the lake. Last year I was able to start taking them in May because it was so warm.

And most of all Spring means we are 1 step closer to Summer!

Linking up to Debbiedoo's Newbie Party!

    Hi Allison, I'm really happy it's spring as well. I too go overboard on the Easter baskets - kids are only little for a short time. I just noticed your daughter's Hollister bag...my own 14 year old can't get enough of that store!

    Hooray! Spring is here! It means sunshine, budding flowers and trees, and a certain feeling of newness in the air.

    Although, today, I'm not feeling that. It's been snowing all day!

    Thanks for the comment!
