Summer in April

It felt more like July than April this weekend in Southern California. The temperature was well into the 90's. I took complete advantage of the beautiful weather and laid out in our backyard (with the dogs of course). Needless to say I didn't really get a tan, it's more like a "burn", but it's nice to have some color on my white body : ) Kyle had to work all weekend so the time he spent at home was mostly spent sleeping, so I did a lot of walking on my treadmill. I've lost 4 1/2 pounds in a week, let's just hope I can keep it up and finish losing the 15 I set as my goal. As I was laying out in the backyard over the weekend I realized how beautiful our rose bushes were (we have a total of 9 rose bushes between our front and backyards) so I decided to photograph some of them, as well as a picture of "my boys" laying so nicely together.
