Always.

Historically, the weather is always extreme the day before (or the day) we leave for a Texas holiday.

And today did not dissapoint.

Pouring, driving rain since last night at 5.  Wind like we rarely see.  Dark skies - like it's night. 

I think it's nature's way of confusing me when I pack for the kids.  HOW will they not need a sweater, jeans and a heavy coat? 

Oh, that's right.  Because it's 75 and sunny in Texas.

God bless it.
