Today is the First Day of Spring! We celebrate with the Big Blue Crew by talking about how we plan to enjoy the new season!

We shared a list of ideas on how to enjoy this beautiful new season.

1. Watch for the First Robins

Robins are one of the classic signs of spring. Take a few minutes to watch and listen for birds returning after winter.

2. Open the Windows

Let fresh air into your home for the first time in a while. It’s a simple way to refresh your space and welcome the new season.

3. Try a “No Jacket” Walk

If the weather cooperates, enjoy a short walk without a winter coat and appreciate the warmer air.

4. Visit a Farmers Market

Some early markets begin opening in spring. Pick up fresh bread, honey, or early greens.

5. Make a Spring Bucket List

Write down 5–10 things you want to do before summer arrives—festivals, hikes, day trips, or projects.

6. Change Your Seasonal Decor

Swap out winter décor for lighter colors, flowers, or greenery around the house.

7. Take a “Signs of Spring” Photo Challenge

Look for buds, puddles, birds, flowers, or sunshine and take photos of the first signs you see.

8. Make a Bright Spring Meal

Cook something colorful like a salad with fresh greens, strawberries, or citrus.

9. Call Someone You Haven’t Talked to in a While

Spring is about renewal—reach out and reconnect with someone.

10. Read Outside

Even if it’s just for 10 minutes, grab a chair on the porch or sit in the sun with a book or devotional.

🌱 Bonus idea: Write down one thing you want to grow in your life this spring—patience, kindness, faith, creativity, or health—and pray or reflect on that throughout the season.
