{Colorful}

Sitting Down Angle POP2 WM

The sun has been shining and the air has been warm.........

Who's Coming  WM

There was no need for bulky winter coats, hats, gloves, or scarves....

On the Square POP2wm

The snow piles are just about gone and it looks as though Spring is just around the corner.

Big Smiles WM

We spent a good part of the weekend outdoors just soaking it all in.....and the only way I can describe my mood.......

COLORFUL!!

I have looked around for the past few months and seen brown or dead looking grass, trees without leaves, rose bushes minus the roses. Everything looked to be lifeless and colorless, but this weekend, I began to see little signs that winter is just about over and it definitely put the spring back in my step.....PUN INTENDED:)

Game Over2 wm

I believe Sarah was feeling just as {colorful} as I was until she realized she had more bubbles down the front of her outfit then left in the container. Our outdoor adventure quickly came to an end!!

It is amazing how a couple of nice warm days can do so much for your spirit and I am looking forward to many more weekends just like this one.

Hope you all have a happy and {Colorful} week:)

A friend who lives in Chicago said that she and her almost-three year old son had a bubble party this weekend, where they blew bubbles to try to lure spring back. It must be a trend - and it must be working!

That sunshine sure is the best medicine. Atlanta has been much colder than normal this year so I too am ready for spring.

These picture are so pretty. I love all the different fabrics and that jean jacket together. Sarah's hair look really pretty too.

We're certainly a few weeks behind you but it was so great to see the sun this week-end too. I almost can stand the cold and snow but I miss the sun. (Though I can do without the brown, dirty snow and dead foliage.)

Wonderful pictures - what a sweet little outfit and I can't help but notice how tall Sarah is getting. Oh my, it goes fast!

Enjoy the sun and have a great day!!

xoxo

Bubbles are so much fun and are definitely for warm weather. We are losing our piles of snow slowly and my kids even asked for bubbles the other day, but I told them it had to get warmer.

Have a good week!
