Texas weather is upon us!  Skirts, shorts, and sunglasses are a must these days.  Luckily, and quite surprisingly, we have had a ridiculously mild start to summer - knock on wood.  Not that I want that to change or anything but we are getting into the time of summer where being outside, unless you are submerged in water, is just not an option.  But before that happens we decided to take advantage of the mild weekend and enjoy as much of the big blue Texas sky as possible.

Five years ago a gangling little puppy was born.  On a September evening in 2009 Collin and I drove to the Houston Airport to pick up some very important cargo.  Our puppy had flown all the way from Michigan to join our little family.  We drove around to the cargo area and saw a small dog carriage sitting, waiting for us.  The puppy was scared and curled up at the back of the cage.  She didn't understand and didn't know what to think about the journey that she had made.  

Mom came to visit this weekend and our days were spent mostly outside in the glorious weather we are having.  The weather is unusual for May in Texas and we are taking advantage of it as much as we can.
