Every year when I take down my Christmas decorations, I always leave up my various snowmen and sleds and "Winter" decorations. After all, they aren't Christmas. I usually leave them up till the beginning of March but not this year. We have had do much cold weather and snow this year, that I'm hoping (crossing fingers) that if I take down all my wintery decorations, maybe we won't get anymore snow! So today, down it all came, down came the Valentines and up went the shamrocks (for my husband.) I'm dreaming of Spring and Easter and light jackets. I never felt so strongly about this before. I hope my little ploy works. Bring on the sunshine!
I also took out all the crafts I want to repurpose. I have a supply of mushroom birds, straw, nests, and other goodies and plan on redoing some of my craft projects. It's been a busy week! Caitlin had a Valentine party at school, which was adorable, and also attended a birthday party for her friend. Now we are planning a little St. Patrick's themed luncheon with her other little friends and their really terrific Mom. My daughter loves to plan! We won't be doing it on St. Patrick's Day but to us, all of March is St. Patrick's Day! My husband took out two sets of green Christmas lights he wants me to put on the bushes outside the house! We'll see about that ;) !
I'm just in a Spring-type mood today! It's freezing out now and will be tomorrow but the weather is supposed to improve and be 60 degrees on Friday! Woo Hoo! Maybe I should pull out the Easter stuff!
Hey Maggie, lets hope your ploy works..I hope you have a wonderful day..and I can't wait to see the projects you are working on.;)I never thought about putting up green lights for St.Paddys..we usually go up to our neighbors house for a big st.paddys day bash..the food is always so good..this year not sure as I have a church thing we are doing that night..so have to decide what I want to do this year..will probably do the church thing as I only see the other folks once a year..and I really don't care..but church..I love these gals..and it might be a "high tea" sort of thing.:)
