Last week when I was in Arizona, all I could hope for was that when I got back to Virginia that it would be spring for good! So far Virginia has not lived up to my expectations with weather but I am hoping with the first day of spring next week that something will happen soon! So my 5 on Friday today is all about things I am looking forward to this spring!

one. yard work
I know this may seem weird, but I am really excited to start doing yard work outside again. I am excited for my grass to start getting green and the trees to get leaves! Although I hate the pollen side effects, it will be ok! This will be our first spring in the house and I am looking forward to getting some flower planted, some fresh mulch and making the backyard somewhere that I want to go outside and hang out at.
two. spring mantles
Lots of different ideas for this one. I recently picked up a Happy Easter banner from Target and I am planning on building off of that for the rest of the mantle. I love the way the tulips look as well as the peonies! This beautiful mantle is from Stacey at Not Just A Housewife. I love the yellow napkin that folds off. I obviously wouldn't have the chalkboard since our TV is about our mantle!

three. baseball games
With the season opener right around the corner, I am so excited for this season to start. I plan to make many trips wherever D.J. is to see him play. Lots of questions still need to be answered before April 3, but I know that there is a bigger plan and I cannot wait to find out what it is!

four. outside projects
I have a few different things going on in my head for outside projects! My dad has an old pallet at their house that I want to turn into this.. I haven't decided where I would put it yet, but this is happening!
On Wednesday morning when I was dropping Stryker off at my parents, I saw our neighbor throwing away their bench. It needs a little work, but I think I can fix this baby up to look perfect either outside or in the entryway of the house!
After going through Not Just a Housewife blog, I found so many more ideas that I would LOVE to do in our yard. This may not be the most realistic for our yard, but it would be so cute!
five. new blog design
I know I haven't had this one for too long, but I think I need to jazz up this blog. If I really want it to grow and get more followers, it's time for an upgrade! Any blog designer suggestions would be appreciated!

Have a good weekend y'all!
I love that spring mantle! We don't have one anymore, but I definitely still want to do something to the top of our bookshelf or somewhere else in our home. It's so cheerful :)
