MLK Day

I LOVE that both Mike and the girls had today OFF! And I LOVE even more that it was 68 and sunny (and very windy!) in the middle of January!!   So, how do we spend a day home?

We stay in our pajamas til noon, while watching episode 2 of Star Wars (only have episode #3 left in the series!). The girls got Mike the blu-ray disks (decided to update our VHS tapes of IV,V,VI) for Christmas, so we have been watching them with them this month. It's funny how much they are 'in' to the story!

The girls played this afternoon outside with their friends - tire swing, trampoline, american girl dolls. Mike and I did a few chores around here, and I started collecting info for taxes (the not so fun part of my day!).

Then we went for a long walk at the nature center, browsed for some home improvement ideas at Home Depot, enjoyed this gorgeous sunset on the way to...yes, you guessed it, Andy's Frozen Custard. Don't judge me, I didn't feel like cooking, so it was our dinner!!

Yes, it was a good day (except the little hiccup in the middle of Mike and I being upset with each other, but I'm thankful we were able to talk it out and put it behind us and enjoy the rest of the day!) I LOVE extra days I get to spend with my three favorite people!
