Time to get rid of that bulky winter jacket. No more wearing a million layers of clothing. ITS SPRING! Whop whop. About gosh darn time. Say yes to shorts and tank top season.
Whats so great about spring?
Everything is great about spring because it means winter is over and we are on our way to summer. It means change and fun things to come.
Easter
I love easter mostly just for the chocolate. Also I love that is another day to spend with family hanging out. Start the day of with coffee and baileys then play games, eat chocolate, go for a walk, eat more chocolate because you earned it after that walk, and eat dinner with the family. As a kid I always loved doing easter egg hunts. Fighting with my brother Dylan to get the most eggs. Then eating all our findings and getting a stomachache. Nothing better. I also remember as a kid spring would mean all the snow would melt off the trampoline and so it was jumping time. I spent a lot of time jumping on our trampoline with my bro. Really all the time I can spend with my family is the best. They are the most important, chocolate is a close second though.
Outdoor Activities
Golf season starts back up. Have you ever tried playing golf in the winter though? Not good when you lose you ball. Can never find it in the snow. So much better spring and summer sport.
Enjoyed hunting trips with my dad when we lived out in slave lake. Spring meant checking those traps and quad trips. Still try to get out with my dad to our cabin now that we live in Edmonton. Love me some mud puddles and running fast through them on the quad. Mud in the ears.
What else man. There are so many things you can do outside now that there is not snow taking up the roads and sidewalks. Like road hockey, walks, work outs in the sun.
Hockey Playoffs
Spring means playoff time. Even though the Oilers wont be in the playoffs I still love watching the games and seeing who will win the cup this year. Should have been Oilers though. I am writing a whole blog post on the playoff season so keep your eyeballs open for that soon.
Sunshine Heat
With sun comes hot weather. What more could ya want. Ice cold drinks outside on the patio. The best time of year. Cant forget about swimming outside. One of my favourites.
