A few Spring Facts that are somewhat interesting:

Things Some People Do in the Spring
1. Spring Cleaning (Cleaning out the old and preparing for the new)
2. Plant Flowers
3. Take a Vacation (Spring Break)
4. Attend Festivals
5. Run/Walk a Marathon
6. Spend More Time Outside
7. Go to the park, lake or beach
8. Fall in Love




Most importantly, which is above everything that is on the list of things people do in the spring , we celebrate the Resurrection of our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ.  However, this should be celebrated all the time because if it wasn't for God giving His only Son, we would not be free from sin and have everlasting life.
