Pictures from a walk a took with my sister down to Lake Michigan on a 60 degree day in February. It was refreshing.
I went to the mall today, with no real intentions of buying anything, but went into Teavana and got some tea. It's Japanese Wild Cherry Green Tea. I actually followed the directions and brewed it perfectly in my teapot (that was a gift from my husband last year); and it tastes delicious. It's so fun making tea in my teapot and drinking it from the matching tea cups. So I'm enjoying that and a breakfast burrito and deciding what to do with my time tonight. I'm finally not feeling sick anymore and its really nice having more awake time and not having to try to recuperate all the time. I've been thinking so much about traveling lately. Maybe this summer taking the kids west of this state a little bit, exploring some caves or even going as far as the mountains. I would love to go back to South Dakota some time. It was fun exploring the black hills and swimming in a hot spring pool. I would love to drive all the way to California and then enjoy a few days on the beach. Of course I would stop at anything interesting along the way including thrift stores. Because it's always more fun thrift shopping in states that aren't your own. Lately, instead of just dreaming about doing things, I have actually been doing them!
Peace, love, happiness, gardens, bike rides, summer breezes through my windows at night, sleeping under comforters out in the yard, birds and insects making music in the morning, playgrounds, sprinklers, festivals, fairs, grilled corn, bare feet whenever you want, summer storms, chalk drawings, popsicles tasting so refreshing, longer days with warm sun, family vacations, making memories, enjoying fall after the end of a long, hot, wonderful summer. ^_^
