Refreshing your wardrobe from heavy winter to fresh spring styles can spark fashion ideas and energize you for the new season.

At Gabriel Homes, many residents’ eyes are brightening for the change in seasons so they can change into fresh spring styles. Wardrobes are swapping from heavy to light clothes, and residents are spending more time outside thanks to longer evenings.

Patrick says he’s wearing his Hawaiian shirt more, while Darcy is changing from heavy coats to light jackets and sweatshirts.

“I’m excited about spring because I get to swap out my pants for shorts. Polos are my favorite shirts in spring, but I also like wearing my Camp Jaycee T-shirt since camp is my favorite time of year.”

Since flowers are blooming, many residents are locked in on what’s coming up this season.

Sean is looking forward to the Spring Fling and Memorial Day, and Stephen can’t wait to see his older brother in Florida.

“My dad’s picking me up and we’re celebrating Easter together,” says John (left). “It’s nice to dress up for the holidays, but I like wearing my shorts and white shirt around the house in spring.”

Switching to fresh spring styles can be exciting, but Sam says he’s missing winter already.

While he’s happy to wear more polos and T-shirts like others, he enjoys bundling up for colder weather.

“I’m fine with the changing weather. Wearing my dress is fun for church, and I can be more creative with my clothes when I work or go outside.”

January and Kari’s favorite parts of spring are the outdoor birds and critters.

Both say their favorite birds are owls and robins, and they try to snap photos when they see birds flying.

“Going outside in the spring is awesome,” January says. “I like wearing a green shirt that I got seeing family in Portland, Oregon, and shorts are way more fun to wear than pants. 

With new seasons come new adventures.
