Sun came out/took over the sky/spring turns to summer/watch the time fly

Upon looking at the thermomiter, I'm sure my eyes probly bugged a bit... 80 degrees!? Wow. It's like seriously, the first summer day we've had. Which is a rather odd turn of events, considering the stormy cold winds that we got on Tuesday o_0 Crazy weather...eh, but I guess that's just Washington for ya, as a friend of mine once said.

After checking out Bo's new facebook album of random photos (and discovering that he's actually rather artistic & good at photography...learn somethin' new every day I guess!), I suddenly felt like taking a few photos of my own. So I grabbed my camera and headed out, only to retreat back to the house seconds later once I discovered the outdoors had suddenly taken on a blinding light. Ouch. I guess that's what I get for being oblivious to the world half the afternoon by staring at a computer screen. Shortly after recovering from the shock of the outside world, I headed back out to face the light of day (after grabbing my sunglasses, of course).

I managed to drag a walk that would normally take half an hour into like 45 minutes. Walking down the street looking up at the cloudless sky and feeling full force the 80 degree temperature pouring down on my shoulders, I remember this is only May...this is only 80 degrees in May. In a matter of weeks the temps are gonna be skyrocketing into the 90's and possibly 100's! Yikes. Scary. But on the bright side, that means the water park will be open soon =) yay!

Despite being able to drag my walk out for 15 mintues extra, it still felt kinda short. In seemingly no time I was back, standing in the driveway of that familiar blue tri-level house with the red rock front yard.

Now what? I'm nearly to both the end of my blog post and the peaches & cream milkshake I made myself for dinner. *sucks noisily on straw* ...yup. Milkshake gone. byebyes.

oh now I want a milkshake. THANKS, SARAH. *glares* lol.

I decided on Sunday to wear a tank top so I don't end up with a ridiculous tan line like last year. and since we spent an hour and a half weeding the yard, I'm pretty sure it worked.

then my friend Becca had an impromptu barbeque at her house so we hung out there for awhile. and a family from my church is hosting and exchange student for three weeks who had just arrived....we talked about the weather and she said everyone had told her to pack for rain, but it was so nice in WA after all......
we're like, yeah, this won't last. this is the nicest it's been all year so far.

oh.



:) *sigh* that sun, it know how to play hide and seek, doesn't it?

As a friend at church said on sunday, "We get three days of sun and then we have to have a week of rain."
