Welcoming Spring: Tips for a fresh start

 This month, we will embark on yet another beautiful season and perfect opportunity to begin as fresh as the flowers are sure to bloom. Spring is the perfect time to refresh and rejuvenate! Here are my top 10 tips to make the most of the season: 

  1. Spring Cleaning: We all tend to gather an excess of clutter through the winter months. Clear out the clutter and deep clean your living space. This is a great time to donate those items you no longer need. Remember, one person's trash is another's treasure! 
  2. Garden Preparation: No matter if you have a farm, flowerbed, or container garden, now is the time to start planting flowers, herbs, and vegetables. If you aren't currently, maybe consider creating a small herb garden or adding colorful blooms to your patio. 
  3. Outdoor Activities: Now is the perfect time to take advantage of the beautiful weather by going for a hike, having a picnic, or family bike ride. Enjoy the beautiful scenery around you as it blossoms. 
  4. Seasonal allergies: If you're like me and have seasonal allergies, keep an eye on those pollen forecasts and keep the allergy meds in stock! You  might even add some immune boosting vitamins to your daily routine to give you an extra boost of protection. 
  5. Wardrobe transition: It's that time! Let's all swap out the heavy winter clothes for lighter and brighter spring attire. Bring out the pastels and floral prints! 
  6. Healthy eating: Incorporate fresh spring produce into your diet, such as asparagus, strawberries, and peas. Light and colorful meals can boost your energy. 
  7. Home decor: Refresh your home with spring-themed decor. Add some fresh flowers, bright colors, and light fabrics to brighten up your space. 
  8. Fitness routine: Revamp your fitness routine by taking your workouts outside. Try running, yoga in the park, or joining an outdoor fitness class. 
  9. Travel plans: Spring is the perfect time to get away for the weekend or plan future trips! I know we will be having Mack start planning our trips for the year soon as her first travel agent customers! Consider visiting a new destination or exploring local attractions. If you need some suggestions comment below and I'll have Miss Mack start to research some cool things you can do based on your area. 
  10. Mental health: Take the time to practice some self-care and mindfulness. Spring is a great season to set new goals, start journaling (blogging), or pick up a new hobby.

School is OUT!!!

Today was bittersweet for me.  I am happy its summer break, but that means we only have 2 years before we have a MIDDLESCHOOLER!  I cant believe we are that close already!  Both girls had a great day.  I got soaked walking to get Madispn, then the rain slacked off enough for me to have buckets of sweat rolling into my eyes!  It has been so humid here that i sweat as soon as i go outside let alone walk the more than 1/2 mile to her school.  We are starting a new walking track tomorrow... not sure how far but its gonna be fun to see

sad but true

Since the Pledge of Allegiance and The Lord's Prayer are not allowed in most public schools anymore Because the word "God" is mentioned...... A kid in Arizona wrote the attached NEW School prayer: Now I sit me down in school Where praying is against the rule For this great nation under God Finds mention of Him very odd. If Scripture now the class recites, It violates the Bill of Rights. And anytime my head I bow Becomes a Federal matter now. Our hair can be purple, orange or green, That's no offense; it's a freedom scene. The law is specific, the law is precise. Prayers spoken aloud are a serious vice. For praying in a public hall Might offend someone with no faith at all. In silence alone we must meditate, God's name is prohibited by the state. We're allowed to cuss and dress like freaks, And pierce our noses, tongues and cheeks. They've outlawed guns, but FIRST the Bible. To quote the Good Book makes me liable. We can elect a pregnant Senior Queen,...
