I Missed The Sun

It's only 44 degrees Fahrenheit outside and guess what? It's gonna get warmer as we get to the afternoon so my plan is to take a walk outside with my little girl and the dog. The weather in our place has been good since yesterday, might as well take advantage of the sunny skies and pleasant temperature these days for we will never know it might suddenly change to being bitterly cold.

I missed the sun so much that I feel so alive when I am outside feeling the heat that penetrates into my skin. I would be so lucky if I'll be able to walk in the neighborhood today because this is one of the things I missed about being home in Texas. The nice landscapes, houses, nice pavement and etc that can only be seen around here. So later folks, you all have a nice Sunday and HAPPY VALENTINE'S DAY TO ALL!

So Hot

I went outside this morning but I didn't stay long. I wouldn't go out if I have no important things to do but I did anyway to water the flowers in our front yard. They are wilting for they have not been watered for 5 days. Even if it was only at ten in the morning, the heat was almost bearable.

Hmmm Texas weather! I hate it to be honest for it gives me headache when I am exposed to the heat for long hours. Seems like I am not the only one complaining the heat, like everyone else they too wanting to cool off a little bit. The only thing that can help us deal with this heat is an occasional rain in Summer.

Spring Blooms

This is what I love Spring, aside from very nice weather I can also get to see various colors of plants and trees. Seeing different colors of trees and flower blooms is refreshing. Everything seems so colorful around this time of the year and that alone makes me wanna live here forever. Proof are the photos I took yesterday of my tulips in our front porch and the big purple tree at the neighbor's backyard.

These purple trees are all over Texas. I don't remember seeing them last year, all I know is that they look amazing and pretty. Do you agree?

...... my hardwork of planting these tulips is paid off, now they are giving beautiful blooms
... purple tree that is so beautiful...

Sunny

It is going to be our last day to be warm and sunny for this week. Tomorrow we'll be back to wearing jammies, socks and jackets inside the house for the cold front is coming. There some chance of snow according to the weather forecast and I don't like the idea of being cold again. Such a hassle for me for it is when the time my knuckles and soles cracked until it bleeds. I hope the coolness of temperature would only last for one day for we are planning of going to Dallas Arboretum this weekend. It would nice to go there with a beautiful weather so we can enjoy the pretty scenery of the garden. Anyways, sharing you a picture of me, Annie and our babies one sunny afternoon just so you can see how much sun we have been getting lately here in Texas.

Depressing Weather

It has been raining since yesterday. I thought it was going to be sunny today but it got worse this day. So dark, kind of cool, windy and still raining. So depressing when we have a weather like this. I don't feel like doing anything inside the house too.

I got a basket full of dirty clothes waiting on me, floor to sweep and kitchen to clean. I haven't started any of these chores because I feeeel so lazy right now. All I wanna do is snuggle in bed all day, eat, computer and watch t.v. Does anyone out there wanna help me with my chores? Raise your right foot!

Jadyn and The Snow

These photos were taken earlier today when the snow just started pourin' that is why it looks so thin on the ground. I wasn't able to take pictures of her when it was 4 inches thicker for she took her nap and I thought that it would be a torture for her if I did because the wind was blowing so hard.

It's not much but it's good enough. Better to have some than not having anything at all. When the snow got 4 inches thick it was dark already so tomorrow when I wake up I am hoping it will still be there so I can play some more.

Gorgeous Color

You might be wondering where I got these pictures knowing that we are now experiencing cold temperature almost everyday? Well, we went to San Antonio last weekend and you may not know, it is a lot warmer there than where we live. Even I, was amazed upon seeing these trees still having their colorful leaves and looks like they just started to fall.

.... the fallen leaves I took, can't resist the beauty of the leaves as they were just pretty so I took a snap of it as a souvenir.

So Cold Out There

The sun is up shining brightly. Perfect for some outdoor activities, that is what I thought when I got up this morning. But when my husband went outside real quick he said it was very cold out there that he couldn't stay longer outside. He was only there to get the dog dish and when he was back inside he was rubbing his arms and felt very cold.

How could it be so cold of mid 30's temperature while the sun is so alive? Good thing we have a good heater that runs perfectly in the whole house otherwise we will be suffering from severe hypothermia lolz. What am I talking about here? Very nonsense. Ah just lemme go now before I talk really out of topic.

Falling For Fall

Yahooooooooo my most awaited season of the year, Fall is finally here! I didn't know it was cooler outside than the current temperature inside the house. I felt ecstatic feeling the cool breeze we're experiencing right now. Apparent signs of fall can be seen on this very first day of the season. I could hear soft crunching sounds of fallen leaves blown by wind on the streets, leaves slightly turning brown, red and or yellow are just few of the things I notice that cooler days are approaching.

Yeah it's cooler today of 67 degrees F that doesn't mean we don't have warmer days either. Next weekend will be above 80s which is pleasant but not cool enough for us to be working again in our house. Generally, I am sooooooooo lovin' the thought of FALL for it is where mother nature flashes it's beauty to the eyes of human kind.

76 Degrees For Winter Season?

It's freaking me out! Knowing that the last three days we were shivering to death because of the freezing temperature we experienced. 2 days in 26 degrees in a row then yesterday in the 40's foggy, wet and dark. Today is the complete opposite of those days.

Can you imagine we reached 76 degrees temperature today? While we go shopping everyone else just wearing their summery clothes during Winter time? This is what I like about Texas because it is not of so much burden here when it's Winter. Temperature is really unpredictable. Weather is frickle and all we can do is endure this kind of temp. we have.

Tomorrow is going to be a little cooler weeewww kadugayan ani ma confused ni amo panit ma amerkana mi ahat ani!

Summer Go Away

I don't like the temperatures anymore.Summery hot! Scorching my head as if you can fry an egg on top of my head.As much as possible I don't like going outside during daytime, I wouldn't mind staying in the house all day than to suffer heat dry air.

Summertime goes from June to August,3 long months before we can experience a most comfortable and friendly weather here in Texas.

Dime Size Hail

Last night was a terrifying night for me.I heard the siren blaring all over the place and I didn't mind it. After maybe a couple minutes the siren stopped and hail from above started pouring on to the face of the Earth. It was so scary for it created a very loud sound as if a big trunk of tree uprooted and fall on to the roof.

I peek outside from our door and I witnessed dime size of hail falling.There were lots of them! BEAUTIFUL white round hail.It was my first time to see such beauty.Poor are the cars park outside with no roof for they probably get some dents after the hail.

The Innocent Me

Snow in the Northern Part of the country is not new to the people living in cold States.In fact,I often hear some of my friends complaining how tired they are with snow because it is not melting and too cold for them to be outside.I would also do the same if I happen to live somewhere North because I can only imagine the very very cold temperature up there,it makes me sick.

But here in Texas,mura mi maihas sa snow for it only comes once or twice a year.This year is the thickest I ever had so I had so much fun and really it's priceless to be able to touch,feel and see the big flakes of snow coming down from heaven.Thanks goodness Lord for you give me my small wish. The video attached is of me having a blast in cold winter in Texas.

Thanks God For Some Snow!!!

Oh my golly!! Thanks alot Lord for little poor wife's wish has been granted by You. You heard me when I plead to have some snow tonight.The excitement was not 100% though because when I went out to play a little bit,I was also thinking of the baby sleeping in our bedroom,she could cry any moment while I'm outside.

And guess what? I was right,she was already crying out loud after just a few minutes in the snow. Hayyy kalipay jud naku gipatilaw gipakita snow sa makajut karong mga tuiga intawn.THE FIRST SNOW OF THE YEAR '08. Photos I took are below.Not much of happiness kay ngitngit ug gabii na ayo gi snowhan mga 7:45 pm na!!!

Fall 2007

Watch me enjoy playing the fallen leaves at the Rose Garden today. Can't believe how one big tree create such a mess on the ground.Children including me like the leaves very much so I asked hubby to take a quick snap of me fore remembrance.

We had so much fun at the garden today.I also had enough exercise because we walk from here to there which is my pleasure.Beautiful roses can be seen anywhere of variety of color. Families were busy taking Holiday pictures together.And we? just watched them.We had our own camera with us so we managed to shoot ourselves.
