Dear Friends and Family,
What started out as a very ambiguous weekend ended up being a lot of fun. We originally had a trip planned that got cancelled because of weather. When you read a weather forecast that includes the words 100% chance of precipitation, drenching rains, thunderstorms, 1-2 inches of rain expected, 20 mph wind with 40 mph gusts, flood warnings, you begin to reconsider whether an outdoor trip will be a lot of fun. And, we decided it wouldn't be a lot of fun. So, instead we opted for a free weekend at home.
Saturday, we found a carnival in town. We bought P a $25 wristband and she went to town riding the rides. Her faux sister joined us so she had company on a lot of the rides. It was a fun day capped by a play date and lovely time on the roof.
Sunday, we restocked on groceries. P and I drew a giant ice cave turned coral reef cave in the courtyard before coming inside to play. Our friends brought their little boy over and Mr. mouse cooked up a feast for all. They are such gracious guests. We're fortunate, we love having people over. And, the people we have over are great people to have over. But, they could write a book on it. It was a great way to finish up the weekend.
And, now, it's Monday. Fortunately, P's camp this week is closer to home. I hope to get some work done in between drop-off and pick-up. The Supreme Court ruled in favor of marriage equality. Hooray! Now, I'm waiting on our month end retirement review tomorrow, the results from P's audition by Wednesday, and the weather for Fourth of July weekend by Friday.
Cheers!
