Summer, get the hell outta here!

Here I am, almost 9pm with windows open(from the top so there are no falling children, LOL) thanking my lucky stars for the approach of Autumn like weather. Dinner at 7:30, dark an hour later and the sound of wind chimes are just some of the things I get to enjoy this time of year. Doesn't it always just seem to sneak up on you too? One week I am miserable from the consistent 100+ degree weather and the next it is gone. 

Dear Texas,
How I love/hate you for the strings you pull with all the horrible weather during summer, but I forgive you when you throw in a day like today. My kids smile, I smile and all is good when the sound of the breeze echoes through the air. Let's try and have more days like this OK? Good then, it's settled. 
Otherwise our faces return to the drab look and I return to mega B mom and no one really likes that mom....although they never really say, I can just tell (see below photo). 

Signed, 

Me, A borderline Texan who constantly wonders why anyone would want to live here permanently with your summer heat.

Renee! That second photo is gorgeous! It screams film! I love it. I am a total heat wimp so I can relate completely to your complaints.
