Yesterday was the longest day of the year and was the perfect end to the most wonderful weekend. There is a calm sense of love and comfort going on in our home right now. I think that a good portion of this comes from the fact that Charlie and I are so stressed out in our daily work that when the weekend comes around we are on our best behavior and work extra hard to make it enjoyable. We relax and do very little and love every minute of it.

Friday
1. Son's scratch allergy test at Texas Childrens Hospital. Over all went well but basically a waste of time.
2. Watched lots of kids movies.
3. Ate Subway.
4. De-fragemented our minds.
5. Whale Wars.

1. Son and I went grocery shopping/Charlie went to work.
2. Charlie missed us and came home.
3. Sandwiches & chips.
4. Short stint on the computer for mom (record keeping $)
5. Pool time!! All of us swim & played in the water. Son is getting so confidant. Several hours of fun & no sun burns!!

12. Homemade banana nut muffins prepared for the week.
13. Internet issues, resolved.
14. Who will be the next Food Network Star?
15. Ahh sleep.

It really was a divine weekend. I just couldn't stop smiling. So much love and peace and laughter filled our household. Summer is truly here in full force. I try to keep a check on my internal dialogue about the heat and my personal feelings on the subject. Instead I'm focused on things like this weekend. The swimming and fresh corn on the cob and spending time with my boys. Son is loving school. Charlie is busy at work. I am working on my household management skills. Life is good.
