Girls vs Boys

Today, Beth and I got to enjoy a marvelous few hours of just girl time, and it didn't involve the grocery store. Kevin suggested we get pedicures and go to a movie, just the two of us. OKAY! What a treasure to spend that time with her. She sat in my lap as we soaked our feet. We snuggled and chatted about everything and nothing. We both got "pink toes".
We bought snacks at Target, sodas at the movie. We sat in the theater, just the two of us, talking about the movie without worrying about disturbing other people. She'll be heading to kindergarten in the fall, and this time is so precious. I get all teary eyed just thinking about it. It was a good day. No, it was a great day!

Meanwhile, back at home, the boys were being boys. Jacob napped, Kevin worked. Then they played and played and played. In other boy news, Kevin will be starting a new job Monday with Wesco International. No, I really don't know what he'll be doing. I do know that he'll be officed at home (oh joy), got a new truck and will be traveling more (I'm hoping to tag along on some international trips).

Once we got home, we headed outside to enjoy the crazy 80* winter day. Jackson, a neighbor and buddy, came over to jump too.
