Good evening.
Today was a good day. I guess resting yesterday paid off. Cause I had a teensy burst of energy.
My mom called this morning and was looking for someone to run some peanut brittle out to a school for a fund raiser. (She makes it for people to sale) Anyhoo we decided we would do it, cause one of our favorite beaches is right beside the school. So 15 minutes later we had the snow suits in the van, and the kids ready to go.
Picked up the brittle and drove out to the school about an hour or so away. Delivered it and then went for a delightful walk/play on the beach. We ended up walking over a mile all told, and thoroughly enjoyed ourselves. The kids built a tee-totter on a piece of driftwood, and thought that was ever so grand.
And the "babies" looked for sticks/rocks/shells etc. It was so nice to take a break from the mundane, and its been way too long since we've had a lovely adventure.
Rainee Grace didn't particularly care for the driving...she's decided its kinda nasty to sit backwards in a car-seat. Can't really blame her on that.
So she cried a lot. 
But I guess everything can't be perfect right?
After the beach we decided to head to the local restaurant. We had a nice relaxing and good lunch. The kids were extremely well behaved and polite.
And then we headed home. Having given the kids such lovely fresh air they slept all the way home.
And the weather~~it was beautiful until after we got into the restaurant and then it started pouring...so God planned it just right for us. Which was just way too cool!
I have pictures, but xanga won't let me upload.
So I'll try tomorrow.
