We know the feeling of just wanting to get outside and enjoy the outdoors now that Spring is here.  Now that we’re in Spring the days are going to start to get warmer and longer, and once the sun sets we just may not be ready to return indoors yet!  So we wanted to share our top five things we enjoy doing outdoors during the evening hours.

1. Roasting Marshmallows Around A Fire Pit

Fire Pits are becoming more and more popular and they are the perfect thing to have on those Spring evenings that may be just a little on the chilly side.  Although you may just be in your backyard, it’s always fun to pretend you’re around a camp fire and roast some marshmallows for s’mores as you stay warm and toasty around the fire!  Just picture you and your family gathered around this Fire Pit for a night of warm fun!

2. Telling Stories with an Outdoor Fireplaces

Maybe you want to go one step further than a Fire Pit and have a full outdoor fireplace at your convenience outside!  It’s always fun to gather around the fireplace inside on those cold nights, but we have fun doing the same thing outside!  We love to gather around the fireplace with friends and family while still enjoying the scenes of the Spring air and the warm glow of a fire!

3. Relaxing in a Hot Tub

Although it might be a little cool to start enjoying those outdoor pools, the hot tub is certainly ready for you!  Sometimes you just need a moment to relax and escape the world, and with the cool evening breeze outside during the Spring, a hot tub could be the perfect place to do so.
