case of the mondays...

sometimes your week starts out with a bad case of the monday blues, only to be cured by your girlfriend texting you "wanna come over for an afternoon playdate?"  which is mom code for wanna come over drink some wine and let the babies play and entertain one another?

had a great time and came home to my husband arriving home moments after us and our neighbors and their grand kids coming up the driveway on their john deere hot wheels.  bowie's eyes lite up and she was excited to go for a ride, while we picked blackberries.  we made black berry margaritas and enjoyed them by the lake with our amazing neighbors.  again, i am reminded that it is the simple things.  it warms my heart that bowie gets to run around in her diaper, get dirty and play with the neighbor kids (grand kids that is).  we are so lucky to have such wonderful neighbors that we call friends and treat us like family.
