This weeks sign of spring is memorial day. Every memorial day my family and i go to my friends house and have a cook out. We play football and wiffle ball and all sorts of other games. We watch movies and play games like the Xbox or Wii. So we basically play games most of the time.
We eat once at four o'clock kinda like a late lunch. Which we eat hot dogs and salads. Then for dinner we eat chicken legs and/or chicken sandwiches. My mom tough is a vegetarian so she eats veggi-patties. Also my aunt is a vegetarian so they make some of their on different foods. That smell great and taste delicious.

This week signs of spring to me is that we are going to have field day soon. Me and my friends were talking about it and some of the teachers. Also my friends in 7th grade are already planning for it so i hope the 6th grade teacher will to. My friend told me that they spent one team time to talk about what they are going to do. So this is a sign of spring to me because in elementary school we had field day around this time too. Evan though i don't have pictures yet because field day didn't happen yet i'm going to put them on soon.

Moving on, during field day in the previous years my grade would have races. Also we would have a water balloon fight and we would dry pretty fast because we would run around and it was really hot. Also we ate some cold popstickals that the teachers brought in. So field day is my sign of spring for this week.

This weeks signs of spring to me is my parents and I went to go walk around Lake Quannapowitt. It took about one hour to go around the whole lake. We went there around five o'clock and we came home around six o'clock. When we came home the sun was still shining. So I went to go play outside to seven o'clock and even then it the sun was still out.
While we were walking the ice cream man came around (which sold slush) . We bought some slush from him which is the second sign of spring to me. HE had my favorite type of slush, blue vanilla. Also i had a mix of blue vanilla with watermelon. Which tasted delicious. So those are my signs of spring for this week.

This weeks signs of spring to me are my aunt and uncles anniversary and all the birds out side that are singing. Birds singing out side is a huge sign of spring because that means that they migrated back and some to have there young. Also in spring birds are always singing their song. So now every time I go out I can hear like 10 different birds singing or calling. I always hear them and see them when i go out side. I see some on my backyard fence. Also some flying in the sky, but some times I can't see them but i can always hear them.

Also my aunt and uncles anniversary was a sign of spring because most of my cousins came and we played out side. We had a basket ball game around 6 o'clock and the sun was still out. We played in till about 7 o'clock and it was still out. So that was a sign of spring, that the sun stays out for a long time. During the winter the sun sets at about 5 to 6 o'clock so it is a big difference. So those are my signs of spring for this week.

This weeks signs of spring to me were the NFL draft. The Rams had the first pick of the draft. They chose a QB named Sam Bradford. My favorite team, the Patriots had the 27th pick for the first round. They chose Devin McCourty after trading there spot two times. The Patriots got their pick at 27 by trading with the Broncos from twenty-two to twenty-four. The the Patriots swapped with the cowboy from twenty-four to twenty-seven. I wasn't to happy that the Patriots kept trading to get a later pick. Devin is a corner back which in my opinion is not that bad. Even though he was the 27th pick. Devin Ross though was the best corner back available.

The other signs of spring to me is that April vacation just went by. I had lots of fun during my vacation. Usually my family goes to New Jersey for vacation, but this time my cousins came here. So we played basket ball outside in the nice weather. Also we played my brothers Xbox a lot which was a lot of fun, because my brother never lets me play. Also we went to a party so i got to meet all my friends again because we go to these parties every month. So those are my signs of spring for this week

One tree on the side of my street had dark red leaves when i cam home today after school.

Also there are little buds on one of the small trees on the side on my street. They were yellow and circular. So i think they will turn into a bright yellow leaves.

A Sign of Spring to me this week is it is my Aunt and Uncles anniversary. Their anniversary always reminds me of Spring, because we go to their house and all my cousins come and we play out side in the nice weather. But, this time it rain so we played in the house so it was different. But we always have fun, because all my family members who live near Boston come. Also this time my Aunt from New Jersey came.
Another Sign of Spring to me this week was that when i came home on April 6th i heard a bird. Evan though i could not record it i remember the sound it made was an eeak sound. I still have not been able to identify the bird and i was not able to find where it was. But i am looking on different web sites to find out what type of bird it is. But I was able to find a Robin and get a very nice picture of it.So those are some Signs of Springs to me this week and lets not forget about April vacation that is soon to come.

Some signs of spring to me are that Easter is almost here and so is April vacation. Easter always reminds me of spring. Because when i was little my mom and dad used to buy Easter eggs. So all my cousins and I searched for them. Also mostly every year after we stopped my mom still bought some Easter decorations for a little celebration.

Also the other sign of spring is April vacation. This is a sign of spring to me because almost every year my family and I go to New Jersey to meet my aunt, uncle, grandmother, grandpa, and my two cousins. So my family and I usually take our silver Lexus there for the week and come back. The last time I went there was one year ago last April vacation when they bought a new house. Also when we were their my brother my cousins and I played out side every day so it reminds me about the great weather.

A Sign of Spring to me this week is St. Patrick's Day. The green three leaf clover always reminds me of the warm weather. Also it always reminds me have spring and April Vacation. Also St. Patrick's Day is my aunts birthday so it also reminds me of her. So that is the first Sign of Spring to me. Second the trees in my backyard have and are getting or growing new leaves. So most of my backyard is green or getting close to all green.

A third sign of spring is the sunset. The sun sets was at 6:54. Which is a lot later than before. Also it was 64 degrees Fahrenheit at high. Which is a lot higher than last month. Also I took a picture of the sunset and there was a lot more color in it. It had pink and something close to a light blue. So i think that soon maybe in a month there will be more color during in the sunset. I think this because in the sunsets in the winter there are no colors. And last year in the summer the sunsets were amazing and full of color. So i think it is getting close to that stage.

Some Signs of Spring to me are that my mom finally let me wear shorts. This is a sign of spring to me because my mother never lets me wear shorts out side in the winter. So this means that the weather is getting warmer. Also another sign of spring to me is that at school today we went out side after lunch and we never did that since last spring. Also i am starting to hear different bird calls which i haven't identified yet.

Another Signs of Spring is that the sun didn't set till around 6:00 today. Also in the winter the sun set was very early around 4:00 if I remember correctly. So the sun set is getting later so that means that Spring will be here soon. Also another sign of spring to me is the warm weather we have been having for the past few days. Lastly is that my dad let me go to Gregory's to buy slush. Where he never lets me go and eat it in the winter on my bike. Also he never lets me eat slush in the winter so this is a sign of spring.

Another Sign of Spring to me is Valentines Day. It is a sign of spring to me because every year in elementary school we had a party. So every year when Valentines Day comes I always think that Spring is coming closer. We had a party every year in till this year. Some years some one my friends and I had a Valentines party out side of school. So this always reminded me of spring.

Also another Sign of Spring is February vacation. Because we have it every year my family and I go on vacation somewhere. This year we went to Costa Rica. It is a reminder because we always go to a warm place. So it reminds me that soon here in Boston it will get warm too. So those are some of the reminders that spring is coming.

Today I observed on T.V Groundhog Day. On CNN they showed Punxsutawney Phil. They took him out of his cage and they saw the shadow. Seeing the ground hogs shadow means that winter will be over in six weeks. But if Punxsutawney Phil does not see his it means that winter may soon end. This is a sign weather winter will be over sooner or later. This is the 98th time we saw Phil's shadow in the last 112 years. He lives in Punxsutawney, Pennsylvania where he hibernates.

Since he did see his shadow there will be 6 more weeks of winter. But this is a sign of spring to me because every year when Groundhog Day comes I know there is only a month and a half left. There has only been four years when he did not see his shadow in 112 years. So mostly every January 2nd we will see the shadow. Also we will know that there is still 6 weeks of winter. So this is one of the signs that reminds me that spring will be here soon.Also if you want to see part of the Groundhog Day in Pennsylvania please go to this link http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cRiVhgdU-E8
