right now...

...it's 81 degrees outside.

...we're marinating steaks to throw on the grill in a few minutes
and then toss on a fresh yummy salad.

...my husband's neck is slightly sunburned from a golf outing this morning.

...my kids have dirty faces, grimy hands and filthy feet from spending
an entire afternoon at the park.

...all our windows are open and there is a soothing spring breeze flowing through the house.

...the neighborhood is bustling with activity; kids all over the place, adults gathered at miscellaneous mailboxes or in driveways sipping drinks and chatting away.

...it's a perfect 81 degrees outside. (oh, did I already mention that?)
