Great Day

Yesterday was a great day all around. Aaron made us banana pancakes for breakfast. It turned out to be such a trying task that he and Kendall had to go back to sleep after. Together these two are peas in a pod. Since it was so beautiful out (sunny and nearly 90 degrees), Kendall and I decided to pack up and walk to the park for Kid's Day. This was the first year we attended (for obvious reasons). Although geared for older kids, it was a lot of fun...lots of booths set up with freebies and games from places around the community.
Here is a picture of a real crocodile/alligator on display.Next, Kendall and I walked to our favorite used bookstore (Rainy Day Pal Books) in the Old Mill and picked up a few books together. Oh, on the way home we walked past a local boy scout troop who was having a bbq. I had to stop and snap a picture of this truck's bumper sticker.
Quality stuff huh? You have got to love the south!

While we were gone Aaron mowed the lawn. It is amazing how much nicer a mowed lawn makes the back yard look.

Inspired, we headed to Lowes to pick up some necessities for the garden. I filled it in a bit this year with soil from the compost bin and some store bought miracle grow stuff. This year I planted red/green peppers, tomatoes, green beans, lettuce, and sweet potatoes. It doesn't look like much now, but I am committed to making this year the best!
The rest of the day was spent together just hanging around the house. Since we finished The Wire (I would highly recommend it...McNulty is dreamy) we started our new HBO series - Rome.

The best part of the day though - Kendall slept for 8 hours last night! She went to bed at 8 p.m. and then didn't get up till 4 a.m. What a little angel!
