Spring is Here!

Our house was feeling decidedly un-Springy, like the remnants of Winter were clinging on for dear life. When the temperature hit 60 yesterday with sunshine, I was ready to do a bit of Spring sprucing.

I had been holding onto these pretty blossoming branches since last Fall, when I found them at Pier 1 Imports for only $2.00. TWO DOLLARS! Ok, sorry, apparently Spring makes me really bargain happy too.

Normally I'm not a huge fan of faux-florals, but in this case I think it works. The flowers are very realistic, and I just love the burst of color that you see when you are walking in the front door. Now, I only need to clear up the winter coats and boots...

Spring isn't the only thing that's busting out all over... I seem to be outgrowing every item of clothing that I own! So today I went on a little shopping spree to Target and bought a cute light sweater, and a yellow necklace. I don't think I will ever get sick of the color yellow. 

Please try to ignore my dorky facial expression, and the cat toy that looks like a huge, colorful dust bunny on the floor.

So how are you celebrating the first signs of Spring?
