Friday favorites: spring ahead!

Daylight Saving Time begins this Sunday for many of us in the U.S., or as I like to say Spring Ahead! For me, Spring Ahead isn’t just about turning the clocks ahead one hour, it’s more a signal of hope: Spring Ahead!

As in, colorful flowers ahead:

Spring Ahead!

As in, outdoor running ahead:

Spring Ahead!

As in, sandals ahead:

Spring Ahead!

As in, hiking ahead:

Spring Ahead!

As in Hawkes Landing ahead:

Spring Ahead!

As in, watching the grandchildren’s sports ahead:

Spring Ahead!

As in, sea glass hunting and wave watching in Mazatlan ahead:

Spring Ahead!

Friday favorites: spring ahead!

As in, Girls on the Run ahead:

Spring Ahead!

  1. Looking forward to:
    1. Planting garden/flowers
    2. Opening up the camper again & getting ready for another fun camping year
    3. Sitting on patio with hubby while he is grilling (may be an adult beverage involved too!)
    4. Seeing our neighbors again!

    Favorite thing:
    JUST BEING OUTSIDE AND GETTING SOME SUNSHINE!

    What made me smile this week:
    Just knowing spring is around the corner, has made me smile lately…. I AM SOOOO READY!

    1. Me too Cindy! All of the things you noted ring true for me too. (Well, we don’t have a camper, but we open the cabin.) I’ve got a pretty serious case of Spring Fever right now.

  2. Fortunately, there is no snow to dig out of where we live. In fact, we have lots of sunshine and
    wear sandals much of the winter. What I’m really hoping for are spring showers since we didn’t have much of the wet stuff the last several months. THAT would make me smile big time!

  3. Thank you for the reminder of Daylight Savings ahead. I always forget….until I am early (or late) for something! I like your focus on hope and optimism….I feel it too!

    1. Daylight Saving snuck up on me this year too. Luckily, they sent out a reminder at work. It is a beautiful spring day here. I know winter isn’t quite done with us yet, but I love the sneak peeks at what’s to come.
