Letting Loose

I very recently took a trip to my hometown of El Paso, Texas to visit family. I’ve discovered that when I visit in the summer time, I’m usually in for at least one lightning storm… especially when it’s hot. There’s nothing like a good old Texas heat/lightning/thunder storm.

Mother nature really knows how to let loose and I guess I took some advice the following night when my daughter and I went on a road trip with cousins.

So much fun to let loose and enjoy the best parts of life.

How about you? Let loose lately? What did you do to let off steam?
