Defeat

After a much too long, and much too cold winter I thought we were out of the woods so to speak. Two Sundays ago we went to church, then came home and laid on blankets in our fenced in backyard and ate grilled hot dogs, chips, and soda. It was the most beautiful day we had had for months. Nothing beats the warming rays of the sun. It was glorious. We had a few more warm days, and then it turned cooler and cooler and of course the rain and wind had to join in. I had been dressing myself, Audrey, and Phoenix in shorts thinking somehow that wearing less clothing would make the weather warmer. It did not work. Today I admitted defeat, and put on a sweater, and I let Audrey and Phoenix wear pants. Have I ever mentioned that I really do not like cold/rainy/windy weather?
