Here in Southern California, we’ve already experienced a few warm days, which has me looking forward to spring’s arrival. My family enjoys spending time outside as well as finding ways to bring the outdoors in with colorful flowers and homegrown fruits and vegetables. As the weather heats up and we start to spend more time out in the sunshine, it’s fun to make a to-do list with a variety of activities. Below is my dreamy spring to-do list for this year, and although spring hasn’t officially begun, I’ve already crossed a couple items off the list.
