Shhhhhhh…. I think it might be summer!
I don’t want to say it too loudly, for fear of jinxing myself, but holy moly…. it’s GORGEOUS today!!!! For the last month or so it hasn’t been warmer than 60, at the very most. I am discovering, since moving to south central Alaska that the summers just don’t get warm like they did in Fairbanks. While Fairbanks may have -60 in the winter, it always had a spell of 90 or so in the summer as well. I MISS THE HEAT! But I digress.
Today is beautifully sunny and at 10am it was already 62 degrees! I bet we might see 70 today (crossing fingers).
I begged the offspring to get up, get dressed and GET OUTSIDE!!!! Of course, she can’t do anything without me taking pictures… so here we go:
I am astutely aware that it’s a good thing that we’ve got a new health insurance plan. I have a feeling it may come in handy. You see, she has the guts to be a dare devil, she just doesn’t necessarily have the skill that is required. I see many ER visits in our future.
And I will say, that soccer has really helped with her ability run and not fall down every other step LOL
She runs like the WILD! Breaking the speed of sound!
Mooooooommmmmmmmmmmmm are you taking my picture??????
In that case…. here…. let me cheese for you!
Okay, enough with the cheese… back to warrior rockwall princess!
It’s such a nice day that even the Franklin… who is painfully acclimated to antarctic temperatures thinks it’s TOO HOT!
I giggle at this picture because he reminds me of those cartoon animals that have the enormous heads and tiny body. But then again, he does have a giant head. LOL!
Well, as boring as this entry may be…. it is entirely too gorgeous to spend another moment at this keyboard (although it does rock that I can sit on the deck as I type this!) I’m outta here to go endure a soccer tournament with the offspring, in which I’m sure she will kick my butt!
Everyone enjoy your day!!!!
