Happy March 1st!!! Personally, March is my favourite month – but if you need a little boost of excitement for the month ahead, here are 5 THINGS to look forward to in March!

1.  Daylight Saving Time starts back up on March 13th.  So the days get a little longer, and we’ll have more sunshine.  March 20th is the first day of spring.

2.  March Madness is two weeks away.  It starts March 15th and runs through the end of the month.  The championship game is set for April 4th.
