1.    Take a walk after dinner. It’s now light outside so you can! Put    the dishes in the sink and enjoy that extra daylight.

2.    Have a picnic at the park. Say goodbye to gray skies and cold temperatures and take your shoes off, relax, and smell the freshly cut grass.  Enjoy the outing with friends or your spouse while the kids blow off some steam.

3.    Buy a sundress. I think I wore a dress every day of my childhood (with a thick layer of dirt on my legs from playing with the boys), and wearing a sundress reminds me of those days of being carefree. I love those comfy shift dresses or new sundresses at Old Navy (www.oldnavy.com). All the fashion experts are saying blue, in every shade, is the “it” color this year.

Question: What is your favorite way to welcome in spring?
