Easter and...the weather - the feeling in the air - although the last few days it has felt like summer more than spring. 4. What are your springtime traditions? Just knowing the kids will be on break from school and planning something to do. I heard a commercial on the radio this morning talking about "dust off the tent and air out the sleeping bags because Spring is here and it's time to get outside" - that sounded fun but who knows if we'll get to doing it. 5. When do you break out your spring and summer wardrobe? uhh...hmm. I guess when it just starts getting warmer. I wish I had a gigantic wardrobe to have to store things and pull them out by season, but I don't....it all remains in the closet year round with a few additions here and there.
