Warm Weather Goals

My street is lined with cherry blossom trees. My closet is filled with pretty pastels. Chirping birds have become my alarm clock. It is official, my friends. Spring has finally arrived!

Each summer I like to put together a little list of fun, cheap things to do or experience. Just because I will be working 40-hour weeks and getting little vacation days doesn’t mean I can’t have a little fun this summer.

2. Go to a Nationals or Orioles Baseball game
3. Drink a margarita outside at a restaurant
4. Go to a yard-sale and buy a dresser

What can I say? I like the little things in life.

What about you? What fun things do you want to experience during the warm-weather months ahead? Draft your own list of fun things and post it on your site. There’s always cost-efficient things to do no matter where you live, and I’m curious to see what people can come up with.

Happy Spring!
