Is it Spring Yet?

Tuesday, February 9, 2010

Is anyone else really tired of winter? Oh how I’m dreaming of warm, leisurely sunny days full of bbq’s and magazine reading on the deck. So, I thought I’d share some lovely patio photos to warm us up a little today. It doesn’t hurt to dream, right?

Look at that bath facing the ocean! Now that is what I call a relaxing space, in any season!

If I could jump into one of these pictures, I would choose the first. Most likely because it looks like "home" to me but also because I'm loving that chaise!

Sweet As Boys said...

Just what I needed to start off my day. I'm so sick of winter, blah!

Julie Johnson said...

Right now I'd LOVE to escape the piles of snow that have arrived through the night.

With all the snow and it getting colder as we speak...I would adore the chance to welcome spring with open arms. I think it is time to welcome walks around the neighborhood and opened windows.

Cheers~

I am ready for spring too! I have bulbs starting to come up, and I can hardly wait to get out there and soak up some Spring sun!

I can't wait for Spring, either!!! If we could just warm up by 10 more degrees, I'd be in heaven! : )

I was just saying - I can't wait for Spring! Warmer weather, digging in the garden, playing outside with the kiddos...ah, I am excited for its arrival.

Oh, wow. Looking out the window at the foot of snow piling up, that little break was just heavenly!! I especially like the first and third pictures.

Spring can't come too soon!

I am READY!! Snow here again in AR yesterday! Love the pictures. They are so refreshing!

Lynette said...

I am so cold - even now - sitting at my desk!! I have a little heater on as I type this!! Yes, I love my scarves, yes, I love my boots, blah, blah, blah - I want some warm weather so badly!

I'm ready to start working on my deck - sprucing up outside - just a bit!

Amanda @ Serenity Now said...

AnNicole, that is just torture!! I am looking out my window at a foot+ of snow and more is coming tonight. It's like looking at a mirage on your blog. ;)

Suppose to get 10-12 inches tonight. On top of the 2ft we have now...

I'm so over the mounds of snow that continue to pile up outside. Bring on spring and sundresses!

That was awesome!! I have daylight savings set to ring in on my phone.It's one more step closer to spring!! We moved into our house in October and it has an inground pool, I am so ready to try it out!! Thank you, thank you for those reminders of what spring/summer feels like!
