I love the lower humidity and the beautiful bluebonnets and other wildflowers that bloom on the roadside. :D

What I DON'T like about Spring is that silly Day Light Savings Time nonsense!j
Happy Hunting

I love the longer days, the fresh grass, the warm sun, and the return of garage sale season! :)

My favorite thing about spring is hearing all the birds come back. When I open up my door its like a nature symphony. I especially like the call of the chickadees! So comforting!
I love Easter! I also love the extra bit of daylight after dinner. Thanks for the giveaway!
I love spring as well. Where I live the trees with pink blossoms are in full bloom. I just love them. I have a photos of them posted on my blog if you want to see a photo of them. Thanks for the great spring give away! I can not wait to start planting.
And since I following you on Google reader, I'll leave one more comment about spring... I like waiting for the first buds to appear on our huge oak tree right outside our front windows. It means that the leaves are coming and soon it will feel like we live in a tree house again.
I love it when the trees burst with little green leaves.
What an adorable give away! I love spring time so much. I love the promise of all things new. Love to work in my yard. Love the cool air and sunny days. The list could go on and on!

What a nifty swap! I love Spring... It feels great to open the windows and let the crisp fresh air in the house after being closed up over winter. First thing in the morning, I love to sit on my patio with my cup of coffee and listen to the birds wake up; chirping, courting and twitterpating.(gotta love Bambi)I enjoy the "smells of Spring" and watching all of my trees sprout leaves, my flowers bloom and the green of my seedlings peeking out of the dirt. I'd have a great time refreshing my herb garden with your herb packets.
Thanks for such a wonderful giveaway!!
I am a follower of your blog and thoroughly ENJOY it!!! I can't follow you on facebook because I gave it up for Lent and can't log back in until after Easter. (I'll follow you then) I'll have to take my chances with my two little entries!! Happy Spring!

Hi Stacey,
I found your blog by way of my niece, April's blog, Opie Dawn. I started following your blog several days ago & have enjoyed reading your posts.
Your giveaway collection is wonderful. I love spring for so many reasons, but my favorite is hands down the wonderful smell of rain, so fresh! After the winter we've had here in Oklahoma I'm so ready for spring.
Smiles,
Carol

I think my favorite thing about spring are the birds singing outside my windows. I also love how everything becomes new right before our eyes.
I love Daffodils, seeing the nests in the trees and buds on the branches! There is a great feeling of hope and anticipation that comes along with Spring for me!
I love Spring because everything is coming back to life after winter. The flower bulbs are peeking out of the ground and the weather is getting warmer.

I love days at the park again!
Thanks for a great giveaway!
I wish I loved spring--but here in Montana it is miserable. I guess there is the hope of better weather to come, but that hope is usually crushed by snow (like right now!). I am afraid it is my least favorite season, but the other three are great.
Now, after all that negativity I did think of something good, Easter and celebrating the resurrection of Jesus!
I am a follower too!
So Exciting!!! I love the things in your give-away. Such F-U-N!

I love the flowering trees...the pear trees and dog woods are my favorites. I love watching the birds early in the morning when they come out to play..I love all the beautiful Texas wildflowers blooming in colors of reds, purples, pinks and blues. This is my favorite time of year!
I love your blog and now will be following you on facebook too!
Sole :)
I like the new green of leaves and plants, as well as the colorful, fragrant blossoms of spring.
I love the color of the trees-like Crayola Spring Green! So quickly they turn to darker shades-and the return of the birds!
~Nancy

I love Spring because it means it's the time of the year to plant flowers! Ah! I love to plant flowers. I can't wait.
Wow! I love spring too!!! I love the fresh start it seems to encourage! I love freshening up my home for spring...changing the bedding to more light spring colors and putting away the wintery ones. Bringing out the lighter greens and blues and whites. I am so excited this spring because I am going to be getting married!!!! So I guess I am extra excited!!! And I launched a new blog so that is a good reason too! I am just so filled with joy this Spring...can't wait for it to get here!!
I'm ready for spring, too! I love the sunshine on my face and all the colors from flowers in bloom.
Oh I adore this giveaway! I lost a baby in January, and had been calling the baby Bluebird for the bluebird of happiness...I am way into nests and birds now!
I love spring for so many reasons...it is my middle name, the return of the groundhog that lives under the pine tree in my backyard, the return of the color green, the little buds on the trees, the sound of rain falling, the promise of a new beginning!
And I just became a follower too. :)
I love driving in the van with the windows open, my coat off, and the radio playing loud!
What I am loving about spring being on its way is that I am able to let my high energy two year old little boy run and play outside to his hearts content!
favorite thing about spring: seeing green everywhere! i love the sense of things growing, the awakening after a long sleepy winter.

I love not having a huge coat on anymore, or boots and gloves and hats cluttering my mud room. My favorite thing however is when the grass starts to look like grass again and the buds begin on the trees. What a promise of Spring!
I love spring the best because the world is awash in color. It's my favorite time of year because I am so inspired by the beautiful array of flowers.
Thanks for this wonderful giveaway.
BTW, I'm a follower of your blog.
I love the sound of birds chirping!! I also love the site of bright green flowers coming through all the yucky brown dirt, leaves and other dead stuff. I can't wait until they actually have flowers and bright colors on their pretty green stems!
I Love getting my organic garden ready for planting. In fact today I cleared it, and readied a bed to plant potatoes on St. Patrick's day!
I canme over from Joy's Hope. She is giving away some of my items from Leah LaRae Baby!

Stacey, I am a new follower and love your blog!
Spring has always been my favorite Season. After a long, cold and snowy Winter, where everything is bare and we are more home bound. Spring is God's promise of renewal and life...rains cleansing the Earth, colors bursting forth. The promise of Salvation...Easter. It is glorious and my soul rejoices!
What a sweet giveaway.
What I love about spring is how all the green and lushness and beautiful flowers pop up. I also love the warmer, longer days
Hi Stacey,
I follow your blog too. Not on facebook, but I am a follower. Does that count?
I look forward to getting my hands in the dirt again every spring! Spring means new life and gardening for me and my family!
I love seeing all the flowers come back to life. It's such a nice way to welcome the warmer weather back. I also love that I can start planning my garden.

I love springtime when the beautiful flowers start to bloom!!! Thanks for the awesome giveaway!!! Love your blog!
Spring feels like a new beginning to me! It makes you feel lighter literally because you don't have to wear the heavy winter coats anymore AND it helps you feel lighter in spirit because of all the blooms! You just can't help but smile!!
Thank you for such a fun, informative blog!!
I love the warmer weather that comes with spring! :)
I love the blooming flowers and the way it makes my kids that much happier to be outside!! (Makes me happier too!!)
I love being able to take my son outdoors again.. finally!
Loving the longer days of spring. Yard sale season beginning. oh yeah!

I love that Spring is a sign of rebirth! The trees, the flowers the animals! I especially love to see the crocus peeking out from under the snow.. Yes we still have snow on the ground here! Can't wait for it to go away.
Thanks for the great giveaway. I hope I win!
I love the smell of spring in my house when I can open the windows on a FINALLY warm day.
Hi sweet Stacey! Hope you are well:) I too am looking forward to Spring coming- This winter has been far too harsh for my tastes... Ahh, the sweet sound of yard sales and outdoor antique markets! Hope warmer days are headed your way...
the SUNSHINE!!
I love the birds singing in springtime! Thanks for the sweet giveaway! I HEART spring!
I love seeing the trees start to blossom literally overnight!
I am a follower of your blog!
I love the generally happy feeling that accompanies spring...the world waking up from winter sleep & everything is new again!
I am a fan on Facebook, too!
I love Spring because the birds are singing to me again in the early morning... my son riding his tractor around the yard because the snow melted.... the sun smiling warmly through my recently washed windows. those are a few reasons i love spring. great giveaway. and great blog. :)
What do I love about SpRiNg?
I love hearing the birds chirping in the early morning and the frogs croaking in the evening. In SpRiNg everything is new. SpRiNg is full of new life and new beginnings. What an amazing world our Lord has created for us. And it seems he recreates it each SpRiNg with new beginnings blooming all around us. We are so Blessed.
Robin
I just love that feeling of rebirth. Everything is coming back to life after such a long dark Winter.
I am now a follower.
Oh! What a great give away. My favorite thing about spring is the shining sun and longer days. They bring with them the feeling of hope that my heart longs for. Winter is super long up here in Alaska and once the beautiful sun starts shining again in March, I want to burst out in song like Maria in the opening scene of Sound of Music. God is good and His warm sun reminds my heart of his loving kindness.

I love being able to spend more time outside - especially with the grandchildren! Love your blog!
I'm late but please toss my name in the hat - cute stuff.
Thanks.
I love everything about spring! New puppies..fresh grass...spring gardens...eggs...Oh I could go on and on...((hugs)) Susie
What I love about spring is that my boys get to be outside every.single.day! After such a wretched winter, we're looking forward to having the doors and windows open and their screaming being perfectly acceptable outdoors. Finally!! :)
What do I love about Spring? I love the antipation of longer days to enjoy and seeing my neighbors after it seems like months of being in the house.
I also love seeing a mother duck and ducklings (not sure if I referring to this right here!) cross a busy street and stop traffic to a standstill so they can get across the road safely...it truly makes you think about what's important in life!
I love how I can feel the signs of Spring approaching. The birds start chirping, trees start blooming, tulips start popping out of the ground and slowly but surely the weather begins to get a little warmer and the sun begins to shine a little brighter. The cool crisp morning make early morning walks or working in the yard so peaceful and relaxing. Last year we built a pond in our front yard next to the front door entry. We basically just had the hardscape of the pond with stone and boulders, until just a week ago when we added some grasses and flowering perennials that have made a dramatic impact to this area. It is amazing what a little greeny can add to a space. I love sitting out on our front porch listening to the water trickle off of the stones and into the pond. We have been getting a lot of visits from quail, which has been fun to see. Along with this, Spring brings more outdoor activities, which both my Hubby and I love. We bike ride, hike, and take walks a few times a week. Winter time always feels so strange without these activities.
I loveeeee your giveaway and hope to win it! I could use a cute little basket and all the goodies inside it around my cottage.
Oh, and I am also a follower of your blog and advertise it on my blog =)
I LOVE being able to throw open the windows in the Spring! Thanks for a chance to win!
Everything comes back to life...including me!
