Longing for Spring...

These images have me longing for Spring today.  Yesterday it was 9 degrees in southeastern PA!

I can't wait to start planning (and planting) my garden. We bought raised beds last year, and I'm eager to get my hands in the dirt.  I haven't been able to garden much in the past four years...having three children under the age of 4 makes it quite difficult to do anything productive while we're outside.  The kids tend to run towards the street!  This year, they seem to be a *teeny bit* more willing and able to play in the backyard while I get other things done.  I'm not sure I can get my garden to look like this photo anytime soon, but anything is better than nothing.

I recently visited Anthropologie.  While I love their housewares and clothing, I am always fascinated by their displays.  This time the store was decorated with big bowls and sacks of flour everywhere.  (I plan to go back and take photos....but I left my camera at a friend's house last weekend!  I'm itching to get it back...there are so many things I'd like to take photos of and share with you!)  

Anyway, I think I'd wear this Anthropologie dress all Spring long.
Rainbow Confetti Dress

While I'm parading around in my Rainbow Confetti Dress, feeling all Springy and fresh and light, Charlotte will be in tow wearing this one from Kayce Hughes.


Speaking of Kayce Hughes, have you checked out the sale on her website? You should.  My 3/4 sleeve tunic dress is my favorite dress ever, and I'm tempted to buy one for all of my friends now that it's on sale.  

I know I'm desperate for warm weather, because I'm longing to paint my nails this color.


And what about you?  Are you ready for Spring, or enjoying the cold weather?
