Here Comes the Sun

I love spring. I hear the Beatles song "Here Comes the Sun" play in my head every morning. In case you don't know that song (or love it and want to hear it) here it is. It's definitely my anthem for springtime.

There is one thing, however, that I don't like about spring. I feel guilty about sitting in the house sewing when it's so gorgeous outside. Because of that I have gotten literally NO SEWING done for 2 weeks now. But I shouldn't feel guilty about sewing since I can go outside and take pictures in the sunshine when I'm finished! Tuesday was my 32nd birthday, so this week has been especially lazy. It has been dubbed "birthday week" around here.

The things I love about spring far outweigh my one complaint about it though. I hate shoes. I mean, I love really cute shoes (as all girls do), but I hate wearing them. That's why spring is great! Because I get to wear flip-flops! Which also means I get a pedicure for my birthday!

I also love sun streaming through the windows when I wake up and sitting out on the deck to have my morning coffee. (And this is my new Keurig, also for my birthday. A present to myself!)

Lots of cleaning up was done outside yesterday. The yard still doesn't look beautiful, but much better than it did. I have empty pots waiting for some pretties to be planted in them.

Spring also means morning walks with my husband. I had to stop and take a picture of this beautiful tree I saw during our walk today:

What is your favorite season? I think they all have good things about them (except winter...) but obviously my favorite time is now. I suppose it depends on where you live too, since weather is different everywhere. I am inspired to make pretty things in bright, fun fabrics, but am also inspired to play outside and be a kid again.
