sunday afternoon

this past sunday was the first sunday of the summer where both girls were healthy and we didn't have anything that we needed to do. sad, but one hundred percent true.

in the morning, thea and i set out on an adventure to spend some much needed alone time together. we stopped into a pet store because thea wanted to see the kitties but it turned out that the mice were her favorite. it took every ounce of my strength to stand in front of a cage filled with the little rodents [and above it, the rats] and pretend like i thought they were cute/funny/entertaining. i deserve a medal for that one.

we came home with a 'pool' at zack's request and after lunch and an entire family nap session, both girls spent the afternoon in it. why can't every day be like this one [minus the mice]?
