Loving Summer

When my wife and I got married 5 1/2 years ago, we had in common that we both preferred the winter over summer, I can’t say the same anymore.

This past winter was very frustrating with all the snow. We were stuck inside a lot and with a one-year-old, it’s not much fun being cooped up in the house. As soon as the spring came we felt liberated from the oppressive weather of winter. The sun was out and we could be outside, since then, we’ve spent most of our days playing in the sun with our daughter.

Since we decided that we would be staying in our house, we’ve found so much more appreciation for it. When we came home from vacation two days ago, we were so glad to be home. One real benefit of living in a townhouse when my daughter is this age is that our Saturdays belong to us. So instead of mowing the yard, I’m playing in the pool.

We inflated my daughter's large pool and hung out in it for a couple hours. Its all we need.

And after a wave of nostalgia covered me, I changed dinner plans to accommodate this last night:

I went to the grocery store to pick up some things and saw these long coney dogs. I couldn't resist
