April Showers

 April is a month of new beginnings... winter is officially over and warmer weather with brighter days is ahead. There is no better time to start enjoying the outdoors with the sun shining and the birds singing!

It is not only time to get the yard even ore ready and plant but also time to shift around the wardrobe and bury all those winter coats and heavy sweaters. I want to pull out my dresses and brighter colors. I want to see all the baby animals in nature and revel in seeing the robins return.

There are also so many wonderful things to celebrate in spring as well. Easter, Mother's Day... and let's not forget the Kentucky Derby!

My April "Bucket List" Items:

• Go to an outdoor farmers market.
• Go on a picnic.
• Be outside as much as possible.
• Try a new recipe with fresh ingredients for spring.

Spring is a time of renewal and rebirth, so it's the perfect time to get out and enjoy the outdoors. There are so many things to see and do in the spring, so get out there and make some memories!

Cozy Loungewear Picks!

So yesterday Punxsutawney Phil gave us the sad news of 6 more weeks of winter. NOT the message I wanted to hear! Now today my little area of NE Ohio is covered in a blanket of ice with the prediction of 5-11 inches of snow to be on the ground by midday Friday. Given the prospect of more cold and snowy weather on the horizon it seemed like the perfect time to share a few of my stay home cozy finds I have been loving this winter.  

I own each of these items I am sharing and have been absolutely loving them! All run true to size...

First up are these super soft and comfortable Kate Spade pajamas that I received as a gift for Christmas. They are just heavy enough for sleep without being overly hot under the blankets. 

                                                        

In the evenings while lounging around before bed, I have been pairing these pajamas with my Butter Socks. They are super soft and warm on your tootsies!

                                                                

On days I just don't feel like getting dressed, I throw on my Ink and Ivy lounge set with a warm cardigan over it. The set is stylish enough if you had to run out or answer the door but yet still feels like being in pajamas all day. I have the set in the color scarlet.

                                                            

Around the house I have been sliding into my feathery slippers for a little added luxury. I have them in burgundy and they are the perfect darker shade to pair with the Ink and Ivy lounge set above. Unlike the marabou slippers of the past, these are actually comfortable with a flat non-skid sole and memory foam.   

                                                            

Another great find from Amazon that I have been loving are these fleece lined joggers. Not only are the comfortable and stylish, but they are also very warm! I have been wearing them tucked into boots when I have to go out and battle the elements with a shovel and they have kept me super warm! I have them in French Terry Olive and it is the perfect neutral green color.
