We have a crape myrtle tree in our backyard. It fills the sky and the ground with little pink flowers. Even though it is blazing hot out, I still like to be showered with the little petals falling from above.
We have really enjoyed having a backyard so far. It is such a nice refuge after a long day at the office. The fixing up comes in stages- first up were some pretty lights. We like to stare out and imagine what it will look like in a couple months. Next up- some flowers and a garden. It will be a fun summer project.
Its finally summer weather here in Austin. The all-encompassing heat has returned. I will miss the spring, and having to wonder if I needed a light jacket in the morning. From now on, I know that it will always be hot. But I am thankful for the sun, which I hope will give my skin enough color so I don’t blend in with my wedding dress.
