Glorious


We have had fantastically mild, summer-like weather this week (70's) and I have been giddy about it. The windows have been open, the kids have been playing outside, I've been going on long walks, there's always a lawn mower humming in the distance, the trees are even more full than last year, the sky has been blue and white just the way I like it, and best of all I spent some time reading outside and savoring it.


**Did you savor anything this week?** 

Comment Window Tidbit: I didn't wear sunscreen during my 35 minute walk this morning and I'm looking mighty pink!

I loved loved loved this week. Kids were out of school, not bored yet, we went on some bike rides, to the pool, hung out at home and had fun....glorious weather. It was a good week. Why can't it stay this nice forever? Give me two weeks and I will be complaining bitterly about the heat!

Glorious is the perfect word for it. I have savored having the windows open and sunshine with gentle breezes. Also the flowers that Eva and I planted.

Such a gorgeous week! (I'm kind of bummed that we're going to be gone next week because it looks like it will be wonderful as well.)

It has been a really great weather week!

The first summer day at the pool was pretty special. Even though I had students who keep coming up to ask if it was me! LOL... guess I look a little different in my summer wear.

Just now I savored getting caught up on reading your blog! :)

I wish I didn't feel so rushed anymore when I'm on the computer so that I could be better about leaving regular comments.

Yeah for summer vacation!

It's hot and humid here. No good weather to savor.

All your comments made me happy, I was so excited when I saw I had a whopping 4 comments.

Whitney wrote Luci a sweet card and included a photo.

Savor is a great word for it! We were out every day, almost all day. I kept feeling like we had to cash in on it because it wasn't going to last long. Loved it!

Your blog colors just make me happy. :)
The weather has been amazing this week. I would be fine if it stayed this way all summer. I have loved being outside, knitting and reading in the sun.

Do you remember that primary song "I think the world is glorious and lovely as can be . . .?"

I think your week does sound glorious...especially since you did it! You finished your first work year.

Holly said...

Sounds lovely!

I wish we could enjoy open windows but that lets the vital AC escape.

Glad you're savoring your freedom & downtime!!

I love those glorious days. Ours are about to fade away into triple digits, but I will take a St. George summer over an 8 month Logan winter ANYTIME! Enjoy!

oh the thoughts of 70's. this morning when i got up at 6:30, I sat outside and read for a few minutes but I think that it was in the mid-70's before I went inside.

I love days like that. Sometimes life is very sweet.
