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. 
Feel free to let me know if you want a deeper dive into any of these tips or if there's something specific you are looking for!

Kenzie's day at school

Kenzie got off of the bus screaming, "Mom it snowed!" It was so cute. Then when I got into her backpack, I found her daily sheet with this on it... Kenzie had wrote her name (not perfect but she tried) and a note from the teacher above it saying "INDEPENDENT WRITING-- ONLY VERBAL PROMPTS!" I am so excited for her! We are definately getting somewhere. Then under the teacher comments part, I find... "SHE CAME IN TELLING ME IT WAS SNOWING-- SUPER EXCITED!" I too saw this when she got home! Construction Zone Newsletter Week 2 Dear Family, This week Kenzie will learn about solving problems. Using the topic "Build with Me," we will read stories about building things and working together to solve problems. You can help your child learn more by talking with him/her about things she/he is doing at school and the new letters and words that he/she is learning. Here are some ways that you can work with your child at home. Think and Talk: What did y...

And WINTER is here!

I look out the window to see.... A BLANKET OF SNOW! It is covering my driveway, walkway, yard.... and we are expecting more this week! I think it is safe to say that winter has finally decided to come! Don't get me wrong, snow is pretty, but I don't like it because that means I have to drive in dangerous conditions! I would much rather be driving in tropical storm force winds and rain (I have done this! When all the hurricanes were going through Florida a couple of years ago!). Now on to other things... Saturday: I had a really busy day. I was at work and didn't think it would ever end. Admissions and falls and sending people to the hospital... stabalizing others and stuff that goes on in the health care centers all the time. Sunday: Zach forgot to add me back into the schedule, so I got off at 2pm. Rode home with Maxx since he lives in Jeffersonville and Ryan and the girls were going to be at his house anyway. When we got there we watched a little of the game an...
