A Picnic

It has been an incredibly mild winter here in Texas. Given how harsh it was last year, I don't mind the change. High temperatures are now hovering around 70-75 degrees. Nice!

To celebrate the lovely weather, Mr. Higgins and I went on a picnic yesterday. We picked up sandwiches for dinner and sat out to enjoy the glorious weather. It's funny how we forget to do this....to enjoy something so simple as great weather. In Texas there is very rarely a transition period between too hot and too cold to be outside. This year, however, seems to be the exception.

Last year, the harsh winter transitioned to the hottest summer on record. I'm really hoping our mild weather will continue through summer.

In the meantime, Mr. Higgins and I have vowed to continue to get out and enjoy the weather as long as it continues to be nice. It was nice having a date night in the middle of the week; it really breaks up a long work-week!
