Questioning Sparrow Morals

Just thought that I would share some random thoughts from a fabulous Saturday with the family.

1) I am slightly concerned about the moral values of the house sparrow taking up residence in our bird house. He came around house hunting with a little lady.

Today while the lady was out gathering goods for their nest I saw him fluffing feathers at a lady bird. Now it's possible that this was the same lady bird however if they have already found a house shouldn't they be past the feather fluffing stage in their relationship? Just sayin'.

2) I just looked at pinterest and now I want cream puffs.

3) I love picnics in the park. I wish I had a picture of the one we took today. An unfortunate incident involving a misunderstanding about the state of the security device of the door, resulted in my camera being left at home, along with my keys.

Aside from that we had a wonderful time at the park. The kids played, I laid in the shade. Then my Beloved took the kids on a treasure hike so I could continue lying in the shade reading a book.

4) On Friday, my girls new swimsuits came in the mail. They picked the same suit for this year.

The exclamations from Beloise were priceless, and included sayings such as:

"This is AWE-some!",

"OH, it's perfect!"

and

"I just LOVE it!

Beloise is particular about her swimsuits. I had a hand-me-down princess swimsuit for her, however after being spoiled with a Gymboree swimsuit last year she refused the most likely Target purchased princess suit.

To her credit the swimsuits at Gymboree are fuller in the bum and have a reinforced layer in that region. I probably wouldn't have noticed the differences if she hadn't complained. Plus they were on sale!

I hope that your Saturday was as thought provoking as mine.

Fashion First Monday

Below is my Beloved's fashion statement for Monday.

I don't care if he does wear boots with his shorts, he is one fine specimen of a man. My soul loves his soul.

We had a bad week last week, just heavy.
Do you know what he did?
He took a personal day.
A day to spend with me, un-heavy-ing the cares of last week. We spent the whole weekend doing nothing and then something but mostly nothing, just being together.
Together as a family and together as a couple.
It was bliss, pure bliss.
We need to find a way to be independently wealthy.
