The first day of spring is on March 20th, 2021 this year, and it time to celebrate! Here are several ideas to try out to spring into Spring!

Take an East Texas Tulip Tour

Better go before the tulips are gone! Also, try out some of these other Staycation Ideas for East Texas!

Pastel Themed Party

Invite your friends over and have everyone wear their favorite pastel colors. You could also translate into food and décor as well.

Workout Outside

Whether it is yard work, a walk with a friend, or a nature hike, take time to enjoy the beauty that East Texas has to offer.

Flavor Your Water

As the days are longer, and the weather will eventually get warmer, it is a great time to start incorporating drinking water into your daily activities. With all of the different fruits, herbs, etc. The possibilities are endless.

  • Basil
  • Blueberry
  • Cucumber
  • Grapefruit
  • Lemon
  • Limes
  • Mint
  • Orange
  • Pineapple
  • Raspberry
  • Strawberry
  • Watermelon

I suggest getting a clear glass container to fill up your water with, and add the additional ingredients. This way, not only is it right there in the fridge, but it is great way to add a little more color and fancy-up water!

“Reliable and Ready” REALTOR® since 2016. I was born in Monroeville, Pennsylvania, but was raised in Texas since 1997. When I found out we were moving to Plano, Texas, I remember looking forward to riding a horse to school and a brand-new pair of cowboy boots! Growing up in Plano prepared me to be competitive, quick, and to have a strong work ethic. I graduated from Stephen F. Austin State University in Nacogdoches, Texas. Axe’em Jacks! That is where my love for East Texas began. The nature, warm smiles, football games, and community values can't be beat! I graduated summa cum laude with a degree in Interdisciplinary Studies. I was a middle school math teacher in Tyler, Texas. I met my husband, Travis, in Sunday school, and we have been married since September 2016. I love being a REALTOR® in East Texas! Relationships are genuine, the area is beautiful, and the market is rockin’! I am an involved REALTOR® to better the community. Some of the organizations I am involved with are: The Professional Development Committee, Texas Real Estate Political Action Committee, and Tyler Educational Networking Group. Some awards I have won were “The Hustle Award” in 2016, and “Rookie of the Year” in 2017. When I am not working with my clients, I like to spend quality time with my friends and family doing the following: running, target practice, read and participate in book club, and playing with my dachshund Greta.
