I have gratitude today for...

* everyone sleeping until 9am this morning. Megan, Jeff & I were up until after 4am singing, listening to music and drinking wine. We had such a good time but it wouldn't have been fun if the kids got up at 6. 

* going to Jeffrey's baseball game. It was so cute to see him in his uniform and trying so hard when he was up to bat. He is one of the youngest and smallest on his team but he definitely can throw and he didn't get frustrated. It was gorgeous out.

* stopping at Publix on the way home from baseball to pick up groceries and Andy's fried chicken. I don't know how long it's been since I last ate fried chicken (a long time!) but we got some because he kept telling us how great it is. We had some for lunch (it was tasty, although I felt so gross after) and then went to the beach. 

* walking with James to the beach, oh boy. He was so focused on collecting lizards that he was not paying attention at all. When we got to the street I had to scream his name because he was in space land. That kid definitely makes me laugh. 

* playing with Erilin in the sand making castles and drawings. Jeffrey & James surfed and skinboarded.

* watching last week's Parenthood while Jeff & Megan put the kids to bed. Love that show so much!

* grilling burgers for dinner. We all ate at different times and just relaxed---talking and watching TV in the living room.
