Well, Ryan declared spring needed to come (for real) immediately, so last night before our small group members arrived, he moved all the porch furniture out of the garage and back to its rightful space.
So I decided to think about some of the other things I'm looking forward to about the return of warmer weather. Want to dream with me?
* Walks after dinner. Ryan and I love to go for sunset walks, and I'm so looking forward to the return of those walks! We have some of the best talks on those walks!
* Running outside. I'm so over the treadmill. It's been too many months. I'm grateful for that option, but I'm so ready for the scenery to change as I move along!
* Fire pit fun! Last year we didn't use our fire pit much and I missed it. Hoping for good evenings to sit by the fire and drink coffee.
* Naps in the hammock. The frame taunts me from the back porch. I'm eager to put it all back together and read books and take naps out there!
* Flowers in bloom. I have to wait a little longer for that at this house, since we don't have any tulips or daffodils. But the pear tree should be about ready to blossom and the roses will be greening up soon even if they don't have flowers yet!
* Ditching the coats. I feel like the migration to lighter clothing and the loss of coats is an instant diet. I'm ready for that.
* Pretty green grass. I was so excited yesterday when I looked out and saw the first thick patch of green grass. It rained all day, but even that didn't seem so bad when that promising first patch showed up!
* Spring and summer food! Salads and grilling and watermelon and more. Bring it!
I'm sure I could ponder this idea for hours, but I think this list is a fine start. What are you looking forward to?

I am just ready to run with fewer layers!! I got hot last night halfway through my team workout, but when I took my jacket off I was sweaty enough that the cold breeze was too much #facepalm
I run outside year round and I actually prefer to run in cool/ cold weather rather than hot weather. But, I am ready to not have to worry about how many layers to wear, bringing tissues for my runny nose, etc. I can't wait to plant flowers and start my vegetable garden.
I wasn't sure what you meant by good 'ole 14A, but it sounded like you were referring to a hymn or something, so I googled it and figured it out right away! I'm an Andy Griffith fan, and like watching the show on YouTube!
💜 good ol' 14A!
Tamar - Oh I hate that feeling!! I've had that before - which is the worst of the evils??
Maria - Three cheers for fewer layers!
Tracy - HA! It does sound like a hymn, doesn't it?
Lori - Thought you would like that!
