Yesterday we had a great day!  I love the days when it's beautiful outside and we don't have to stay indoors all day!  Me, Ben , and Millie rode around on the golf cart with our "swords" and ran from pirates and looked for buried treasure.  The "unicorn" next door (our neighbor's horse) actually gave us a map to find it.  Ben is really into pretending and Millie is starting to get into it too.  I wish you could hear Ben and some of the scenarios he makes up.  

  

Something else that cracked me up was that when mike is home he always makes breakfast..it's sort of his thing.  Well right now we are having a room enclosed upstairs so there are workers here every morning while he is cooking.  Then yesterday he decides to make homemade granola too.  I was laughing because the workers must think he is betty homemaker...and i made sure to ask him how his "baking" was coming when one of the construction guys came through!  

The kids love when we read books on the back porch at night.  I hope they have a lot of special memories like this.  So last night we read Mill's new Fancy Nancy book and Ben picked out Three Billy Goats Gruff.  I am so glad they love stories...and it felt great on the porch last night.  I love getting snuggled up with them under a blanket and getting to make all the characters voices...ben and millie just light up!  Mike and John Campbell listened while they rocked in the rocking chair too.  It was a beautiful day!
