July 24th

Today was most excellent. One of the best of 26. I began by waking up at 8:21 and about having a heart attack. My boys wake up at 6:30. I believe this is a record in my mothering career. Sweet, sweet sleeping in. They knew just what I would love most!

We hung out in our pajamas until 11:30 and then ran over to Market Street. It was raining and overcast so only like 76 degrees. Perfect. James walked with the umbrella and Matthias and I just enjoyed the drizzle. We got soup and sandwiches at Potbellies, then over to Cold Stone for my free ice cream. Strawberry with cookie dough. Yum. Wandered over to the book store to pick up some books. Stopped to check out bugs and walk on walls along the way.


After heading home for naps we ran to see some friends and then home for a yummy dinner with Taylor...steak, yams, homemade bread, grilled zucchini, watermelon, and lemonade. We finished off the night with ice cream and of course sparklers. Very wonderful day!
