Signs of Spring

I love spring in Utah...it likes to trick you by coming and going for a while but it's always such a nice relief to know that the long, cold winter is over.

Here are a few signs I've seen in the past few days telling me it's spring:
  • Tulip's are breaking the ground ready to show their beautiful faces
  • My mom finally cut her rose bushes all the way back
  • Goggle sunburns (you know the ones you get from spring skiing)
  • Blue, blue, blue skies
  • Kids bikes and razors laying around in yards
  • Kids jumping on trampolines
  • Muddy shoes
  • 66 degree's on my car temperature gauge
  • Forecast of snow for the weekend (it wouldn't be Spring without snow)

Hooray for spring!

I love watching for my tulip, daffodil, and crocus bulbs to break through the soil. So much fun! I hope my crocus haven't all flowered and died by the time I get home. You'll have to enjoy them for me.

Spring is what I miss most about living in Utah. I absolutely love the Spring and early summer in Utah. My favorite is when they would let the water run in the gutters and I would love to walk in the cold gutter water--call me crazy.

Yeah! And if it snows at least it will melt in a few days- rather than stick around for two months! I love springtime!

I'm with Jen, bring on spring!! I do enjoy the occasional snow storm to remind me that conference is coming and I live it UT!
