Spring Fun

I found another fun quiz I thought I'd do here on the blog! A good way to ease back into the week after spring break, right?

1. What three colors remind you most of spring? I would say green (both for St. Patrick's Day and for the return of thick grass and leaves), pink (for blossoms), and yellow (flowers and sun).

2. What is the first thing you add to your wardrobe in spring? Well, I'm not really one to add to it often anyway, but I do love an Easter dress. It's usually the only dress I buy all year, and even though the shopping of it exhausts me to no end, I really do love the joy of finding a good classic dress. This is one of my favorite traditions.

3. What is the first wardrobe item you ditch in spring? My winter coat. Even if I'm cold, I eventually reach a certain point where I refuse to put that thing on ONE MORE TIME until next year.

4. Who mows the grass where you live? Ryan, most of the time. And by most, I mean I mow like once a year. I don't like mowing and he enjoys it. It's a good decompression activity for him (like scrapbooking is for me) so it really works out well for us! If he's got a really busy week, I don't mind helping at all, but I don't find the joy in it that he does. (He's gearing up for the season!)

5. What's spring like where you live? Last week I saw this Facebook meme, which expresses it better than I could.

6. What's your favorite thing about spring? Hearing the birds! Even when I wake up before it's light outside, I can hear them! And while the return of all the goose poop on the sidewalk isn't my favorite thing, the fact that the geese are back means summer has to be soon, right?

7. Are you a spring cleaner? Nope. I dig in and clean up/out a room when the urge hits me. I don't care what season that might be. It actually probably happens more often in fall or winter. Come spring, I want to go for walks! (Another of my favorite things about spring!)

8. Are you a baseball fan? Not diehard. Ryan and I have been to a couple of games at our local stadium, and they're fun, but we don't get into it like he gets into football. :)

9. Tulips or daffodils? Tulips! All the colors!!

10. Favorite outdoor spring activity? It's not been warm enough yet for this, but I can't wait to sit outside on our porch furniture in the evening and drink some coffee! And go for walks. We have really, really, really missed our walks.

11. Flowers in the ground or pots? I usually plant mine in little pots or planters. We do have some rosebushes in the ground, but at this house, that's it. I probably should try to do more of the bulb scene so I can enjoy those tulips I like!

12. Favorite bird? Well we have some cardinals that live around that are SO pretty, but those are more of a winter bird. I do love seeing a good fat robin in the spring!

13. Car wash or wash vehicles at home? Well, Jesus washes my car with the rain, and that's not one of the choices, is it? LOL! Ryan loves a car wash, but then he comes home to detail it himself. And he lovvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvves washing the car.

14. When do you pull out your sandals? Never. My sandal days have sailed.
