10 of my favorite things that happened today

1. after noah and hazel made a big construction paper mess
they cleaned it up

2. when we took lunch to michael at work
he decided to take the rest of the day off

3. we had a fun mid-day date to the mall
and bought a new trash can

4. instead of my hauling all 4 kids to sports camp and meeting
michael there, he took noah and hazel and i stayed home
with olive (napping) and eleanor

5. i had time in my day for the first time in a long time
to lay down, nurse and enjoy eleanor
we both got a little nap in

6. while i could have been productive
i sat and ate pistachios and enjoyed the quiet

7. watching the kids run around in the sprinkler

8. we had our new favorite dinner which consists of 
brown rice, grilled chicken and corn
everyone ate it 
and there were so few dishes

9. family home evening about loving everyone
no matter how they look or act
the kids seemed to really understand

10. having the kids to bed by 8:45pm
for the first time all week
their normal bedtime is 7pm but summer is
totally throwing us off

all in all it was a very good day
my very favorite part
was a little time to myself
