A Day Away…

So… we took our fun little photo outing on Monday & can I just tell you what a BLESSING it was??  Now, I L.O.V.E. my children & I ADORE my husband (he isthe best, you know?), but getting away for a day is such a treat. And if, while you are away, you choose to live "in the moment" (that means actually talking to yourself and saying things like…"I'm not changing a stinky diaper right now, I'm riding the metro to Union Station"  or.. "I'm not washing the dishes for the 3rd time today, I'm taking a photo of my very best friend in her oh-so-funky & fresh orange coat that she secretly wants to give me..if only Danny hadn't bought it for her.."  or… "I'm not playing Polly Pockets right now, instead I'm … well, anything is better than playing Polly Pockets- those things are just too small!) Then, by the end of the day, you're TOTALLY satisfied with your day away and REALLY missing your husband and sweet children. At least, that's how I do it.  Grammar will come in a few years. I type like I talk (hence the random run-on-sentences & dashes & dots and parenthesis or however you spell that). So… we found some GREAT places. I'll let you see for yourselves. (I use the plural because I'm hopeful that more than one person reads my blog. :O )
