Hello, friends! Happy April to all. I love April and it’s promise of Spring. Things are turning green, the sun is out, the skies are blue, flowers are blooming and birds are singing. Ok, not every day but it is happening. Although April can be a dicey month in Texas. It’s the one that holds the most promise of nasty storms with hail and even tornados. No, I’m not fond of that April but I’m hoping for a mind one with showers to water the grass, gardens, and flowers. We’ll see what happens.
It’s no fooling that yesterday was Easter. That is not an April Fools at all but instead, a feel blessing with the promise fulfilled with a resurrected Savior. I hope you enjoyed your day.
And today is the first Monday of the month which means it’s TBB Asks. These posts are so fun because participation continues to grow. It’s a great way to meet new bloggers and learn so much about them. Can’t wait to read blogs today {or tonight after work} and meet some friends.
1. 3 colors for Spring - Green for all things that are growing again, white and pink.
2. For Spring, I add skirts and dresses because I rarely wear them when the temps dip.
3. Spring means I’m ditching winter coats and gloves.
4. No one at our house mows grass anymore because the HOA takes care of that one. If we had to mow, it would not be me.
5. Spring is just like a described above. Sunny skies, green grass, warm temps and oh I forgot to mention wind. The winds of Spring in Texas can be horrendous. They about blow me away. Have I mentioned that I dislike wind? I do. A warm breeze is delightful though.
6. What I love about Spring is seeing the dormant world come back to life.
7. I’m a sort of Spring cleaner. I tend to do a little deeper cleaning but it’s not set in stone as a must. It just happens organically when the windows are open and the air is fresh. That totally motivates me to make it happen.
8. I like baseball but not a diehard fan.
9. Tulips are my all-time favorite flower.
10. Does sitting on the patio with a cup of coffee and a book count as an activity? Ok, that’s my favorite.
11. I like flowers both ways. My husband built some flower boxes for me and I’m excited to fill them. They will hang on our fence. I love this idea.
12. My favorite bird is the cardinal. The male is the red one and I love it because it was my grandma’s favorite.
13. Car Wash, baby. I love the new automatic ones that pull you through and do all the work.
14. I’ll pull out sandals when the temps are consistent at 75 or 80. My feet are always cold and I don’t like cold feet. However, I will be barefoot all the time inside the house at this point forward.
Alrighty then. That’s all I have today. If you haven’t seen what’s coming up on The Blended Blog then take a look at these graphics. Hope you’ll join us!
Have a great week, friends!
Be blessed! ~ Carrie
