Gratitude Tuesday #8 - Perfect Weekend
It's Gratituesday....
Today I am grateful for a perfect weekend with my family. Here are ten fantastic things about it:
1. An extra day - Toad was sick on Friday so I was able to work from home with him and watch the Disney Channel all day!
2. The weather - sunny, warm (but not too hot), breezy. Late summer perfection.
3. Friends - spending Saturday with dear friends who recently moved an hour away.
4. Comp tickets to the Minnesota Renaissance Festival - thanks, Holly!
5. A day at the Renaissance Festival - my first in more than ten years. I love it so much - I went often as a child, in high school, and during college. So many great memories.
6. Everyone in my family LOVED it, too... and here are some of our favorite things:
7. Lemon sorbet and Florentine ice - amazing.
8. Mermaids! Enchanted Forest! Secret Garden! Twig the Fairy!
9. Toad rode an elephant. By himself. Without hesitation. So proud of him!
10. Happy, tired children who will never forget their first trip to the Renaissance Festival and are already talking about next year.
The house is a mess, I'm behind on the laundry, I didn't write a thing over the weekend, but none of that matters.
What's on your gratitude list today?
