These last nine days were so nice. It started off cold and rainy, but by Monday it was warm (not hot) and sunny. We spent a lot of time outside enjoying the spring weather.
It's a close race between spring and fall for my favorite time of year. Each has its merits, but spring has something that fall can't compete with . . . bluebonnets. They are just starting to pop up, and with our nice rainy winter, we're gonna have a gorgeous wildfire season.
They may be a weed to some, but to us Texans there just isn't much that's more beautiful than a field full of bluebonnets. And yes we will traipse right into that (possibly) snake infected patch and plop our babies down to get the perfect bluebonnet pictures. Rattlesnakes schmattlesnakes. We've gotta have our bluebonnet pictures. Live here a while . . . you'll be doing it too.
So, tomorrow morning it's back to the real world. Back to early mornings and busy days. Back to math and literature and dumb old standardized tests. But it's only 10 weeks until summer. Of course, by then it'll probably be 110 degrees which isn't quite so nice. I'm praying for a rainy spring and a summer that's a tad bit cooler than last. I'm sure I'm not alone in that.
Enjoy your Monday everyone.
