That time has officially come upon us. Spring has sprung. Hopefully for the places that experience an actual winter, that means that Mother Nature has finished her cold torture and is taking a break for a little to prepare for her heated torture. Lucky for us, that means we get a nice break too. A couple months of just right temperatures, light breezes and things all around coming to life. With the coming seasonal change, I decided to list some of the best parts of Spring.
1. The Weather
As I said before. Spring brings a change in the weather (if you're lucky). It's the season right after winter and right before summer. It's the meat between the bread slices of freezing and sweaty hot. It comes with the hopefulness that nice weather is here to stay and that snow and ice has been officially kicked off the show. Spring weather is literally the most perfect weather. Light breezes, warm temperatures, sun. It's not too cold and not to hot. It eases us into the melting heat that is summer.
2. The Flowers
If you know me you know I love flowers. And nature. And anything outside. Irregardless, the flowers are one of my favorite parts of spring. Especially tulips. I love seeing the tulips pop up out of their underground home they hibernated in all fall and winter til the time was right. It's like a wonderful greeting from nature letting us all know it's time for the sun to hang out and the father snow to GTFO. And they are so pretty. Brightening everything around us up.
3. Ice Cream
Springtime always means the majority of the ice cream places that don't stay open all year long, will start opening their doors and firing up those ice cream makers. Now I am a firm believer that ice cream is good all year around, despite the temperature outside, You can always catch me with a cone in my hand in 0 degree weather and again n 80 degree weather. However, a nice cold ice cream cone is so much more refreshing and enjoyable when it's a little warmer outside. It's also nice because since it's not super hot outside yet, you don't have to race the melting ice cream and temporarily freeze your brain in the process. Take it slow, one lick at a time. There is no rush during the spring.
4. Spring Wardrobe
Even though I'm a big fan of the fall and winter wardrobe, I do love me some pretty, flowy spring dresses. Best time to bust those puppies out is spring! Also gotta love those open toed shoes and sandals too.
5. The Smell
Spring smells absolutely amazing and you don't know what I'm talking about then you should step outside on your front lawn after it's just been mowed. The greatest smell on earth right there. Fresh cut grass, flowers, spring breeze. Sure my allergies act up really bad in the spring but it's definitely a fair trade off for these fantastic smells.
