I'm really thankful for the new Lemon Tree Frozen Yogurt in town. We stopped there last night and enjoyed some frozen yogurt sitting outside on the picnic tables- it was such a beautiful night. Kael had Cupcake flavored frozen yogurt (it was the closest thing to orange, color-wise) with one mandarin orange and a scoopful of mini M & M's while Klyee opted for the Watermelon with two blackberries and mountains of sprinkles. As I sat there, I couldn't help thinking, "This is what summer's all about."
Evidently, it's also about trying to balance (orange!) spoons on your nose.
I am thankful for some B-E-A-utiful pictures of my Kylee Kay. If you're my FB friend you've already seen these but yes, I'm sharing them. Again. I love to get the kids' pictures taken but they tend to love the experience a little bit less than I do. I always go into any photo session thinking, "If I get at least one decent picture, I'll be happy" but this time I got lots of wonderful pictures of KK. Yeah, we call her that.
I'm thankful that Kent gets to go away for a long weekend fishing trip with the guys. If anyone deserves a break for all their hard work, it's Kent. It's always a different dynamic around the house when Kent is out of town. The kids and I will no doubt go out for Mexican (at least once, maybe twice) and stay up way past bedtime having slumber parties downstairs.
I'm thankful for memories with my sisters. Mandy e-mailed me yesterday reminding me of how much our "Summer Mix" CD that we burned 8 years ago still rocks. I think I've actually blogged about that CD before- it's not really that the songs on it are so wonderful (well, they are a little bit wonderful- I think the first track is Summer Girls by LFO, maybe you remember that one?!), it's just that every time I listen to it, memories of summers past come flooding back and that never fails to bring a smile to my face.
Happy Thursday everyone!
