A warmish winter thus far

Don't get me wrong, y'all. I'm not wishing ice and frigid temperatures on us here in Texas. However, it just seems wrong when the temps creep back up into that shorts and flip flops wearing zone during wintertime. I'm still trying to get some mileage out of my boots and sweaters at this time of year. Plus we need at least a few more serious cold snaps to help kill off some of the bug population. 

Living on the lake means these Fahrenheit fluctuations can make for some interesting sunrises and sunsets. Plus the steam and/or fog rising above the water creates a really cool effect. I'm thinking we'll probably take the boat out for another spin around the lake before our next round of cooler weather rolls in on Friday. Maybe invite a few of our neighbors. I've got two new covered charcuterie style containers, one that even holds ice in the bottom to keep things cool, and I'm just itching to try them out. Lake life continues to make me smile on the daily. As you can see in the pic below, our daughter's fur baby would undoubtedly give two paws up for boat rides, too.

  1. We've had nice weather here this week although rain is moving in tomorrow and then it's going to cool off some next week. I like the break from heat and humidity. My hubs would be happy with year round summer temps.
