Happy 4th!!!


We had such a lovely weekend. I love holidays so much simply because it gives us americans a reason to have a day or two off from work, hang out with family, do special things that you don't always do, eat lots of yummy food, be outside, and celebrate! And for that I love holidays!!

Friday Peter and I had our own little cook out on our patio and had a chimanea fire since it was still cool weather. We hung out outside all evening soaking in as much of the outdoors as we could since we knew this heat was coming. We roasted marshmellows, read some books, and took turns chasing Noni away from the flowers that she so wanted to smash or from eating the little pebbles that are just so tempting and making sure she doesn't fall out of her new little car that she climbs all around in. Sigh...not quite as relaxing as it used to be when we sat outside.

Saturday we slept in and enjoyed a lazy morning then went to Starbucks for a coffee date. MMMMmmm! A great way to start my morning. There is a fountain right outside of the one we went to for kids to play in and its FREE! So Nonah and I are becoming a regular there. Hehe. Its something to do and she loves it. She already is a big time water girl. So this was the first time daddy got to see her in the fountain. It was fun. Then I went for a run which was so theraputic, I think I might try and do that more regularly. Then we just chilled in the AC the rest of the night.

Sunday was family picnic day. We spent the whole day at my in laws. We ate lots of food, visited, played crouqet, and just relaxed. The kids went in the little kiddie pool which was so nice. Nonah had lots of fun with her cousins!



Over all we had a very relaxing fun weekend! Now its back to reality! Wahoo!
