You know...since we grew up in the same house and all ;-). <br /><br />I loved the day Dad got our bikes out of the shed!! Such an exciting deal. And when the Tastee Freeze opened?! Spring gave such an exciting promise that lake season was soon to come.Abbyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06854266979976413979noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1131924142966006519.post-3740741806343681912012-04-26T23:18:35.634-05:002012-04-26T23:18:35.634-05:00I have always loved Spring!!!!I have always loved Spring!!!!Jolene - EverydayFoodiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11490816021651698189noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1131924142966006519.post-39809347365966087172012-04-25T21:13:12.408-05:002012-04-25T21:13:12.408-05:00I don't know that I have any specific "sp...I don't know that I have any specific "spring" memories as a child, except maybe Easter dresses!

It was so nice after a long Boston winter to be able to get outside.

Then I voluntarily played until I took a flyball in the face and that ended my softball career forever.<br /><br />I loved/adored spring in college there is no place like the mountains in the springtime, it's heavenly. <br /><br />Now I love spring because it holds the promise of summer and summer nights and everything looks so beautiful and fresh!!!Charis Faithhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01199090990410292913noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1131924142966006519.post-73289422224654828672012-04-25T12:03:24.515-05:002012-04-25T12:03:24.515-05:00Spring is a bit hit or miss in the NYC metro area,...Spring is a bit hit or miss in the NYC metro area, but it's definitely usually warmer than where you're from and since we don't get that much snow in the winter (except for last year!) we don't get that crazy mud effect. I am a summer girl more than anything else, always have been, but I like that Spring reminds me that Summer is coming soon and I love that it means Winter is far away!

Spring began in March there with sunny skies and temps in the 70s. Everything was in bloom and it was dreamy. <br /><br />Everywhere else I've lived, spring is my least favorite time of year. It's usually cold and damp and actually pretty dreary. I'd honestly take a good snow storm over what we're having right now.Nilsa @ SoMi Speakshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08474642034399063234noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1131924142966006519.post-2985081708245779352012-04-25T09:16:48.910-05:002012-04-25T09:16:48.910-05:00I grew up in Ontario and the springs were beautifu...I grew up in Ontario and the springs were beautiful there!
