Sunday

Today was a pretty typical Sunday. 
Woke up early. Spent time with the family. Made breakfast. Walked dog. Got ready for church.
I got to sing today at church, which was awesome. I love the Worship Arts team at Church at the Bay. They are so extremely talented.
Parker got to bounce in the bounce house after service, which he LOVES.
He's crazy, have I mentioned that before???
After church, Parker napped and I jumped at the offer from my hubby to go get a pedicure.
You know you have to jump quickly at these opportunities, right?
I think he said, "Yeah, you should go." And before the word "go" came out of his mouth I had my keys in hand and was walking out the door. :)
But it's good to have some "me time" as I call it. I get to unplug. Sit in a chair for an hour and read magazines that I would never pay to subscribe to. It's therapeutic for me.
And when I get home, I am excited to see my little family. It gives me time to miss them.
So, today when I got home, we played. A lot.
Mostly outside today since it was such a gorgeous, breezy Spring day.
Brian pulled out some lawn chairs, the cornhole boards, the kiddie slide and put on some Pandora tunes. We were ready for some outdoor fun.

This is Parker's new favorite thing. He likes to look at me upside down. And then he laughs hysterically... which makes me laugh hysterically.
Of course typically it's not balancing on a lawn chair while he does this move. I prefer him to do it on the ground, but boys will be boys...
 After playing in the front yard for a long time, we decided a bike ride was in order. We headed up to Starbucks and the little shopping Village by our house.
 The boys both got cake pops, and Brian and I got coffees (tall, nonfat, iced vanilla latte, of course!). :)
Then we walked over to the fountain and let the boys play there for a while.
 Parker was happy just looking at the fountain for a while. But then big brother put his feet in and well... he decided there was more exploring that needed to be done!

Of course he couldn't have been happier once he was side-by-side with Payton.

After a quick trip to the Village Market for a bottle of wine for dinner, we biked home and played some cornhole in the backyard before cooking burgers on the grill.
Overall, amazing family day. I love chill days like these!

Correction...

Pedi - I think I had just opened my mouth and you were moving towards the door. I was going to ask what's for dinner...
