Ode to OKLAHOMA Seasons

I know there are a lot of winter haters out there.  They are sick of the snow, ice and cold!!!! I know but..... I luuuuuv the seasons!  I think it is beautiful out, that my kids get to sled and that we have fun snow days and get to sleep in!  It makes us all slow down and stay home with our families.  My  young family already has so many obligations every night!  Any hoo, I get worn out on the heat when it is 104 in  the summer and I feel like I am about to melt!!!  I just make the best of it and go down to Lori's on the golf cart with the kids in my two piece!  I know I don't belong in a two piece but I am......... and I lay by her pool with her and fry!!!!  My allergies go nuts in the spring and I sneeze my head off! I still wouldn't change the climate here. I love it and I am so grateful that we get to see the beautiful leaves turn in the fall,  a white Christmas in the winter, beautiful spring flowers in the spring and fry in the extreme heat of the summer.  You don't get these seasons everywhere people!  Then again I am a notorious vacationer that does like to escape at times! lol!  I just want to say I love Oklahoma!  I love the seasons, the people and even our ugly city!  Thanks Lori for sending me this Gorgeous picture of your backyard cardinal!

But you are so right . . you have to enjoy every season that we are given and in Oklahoma, we get a little bit of everything. Everyday is a gift!
