June 25th was a Wonderful BIRTHday!

My sweet heart took the day off from work! We went to Dallin's swimming lessons together in the morning and then my amazing, thoughtful friend babysat my kids for seven hours! SEVEN hours, she truly is amazing :) The time flies by when you do not have children around. My dear Rolo took me to Krispy Kremes, then we went shopping at DI and bought some books. I love shopping without my children :) (i really do love my kids but it is soooooooooooooo nice to have a break) Then we stopped at Subway to get a lunch to take for a picnic at the Botanical Gardens in Boise.

A self portrait of us at the Gardens! It was beautiful! The rose garden was in full bloom, we sat down on a bench and ate our lunch and watched all sorts of gorgeous birds fly by us. There was a little pond in front of us where we were sitting and a little bird was taking a bath. Then we took a stroll thru the gardens and sat down again for awhile on a swing. One word to describe my life at that point sitting on the swing 'CONTENT' perfectly content.

We had no planned agenda for the day, we took ourselves where ever the wind of adventure led us to.

SO,

we went downtown and went for a ride on a paddle boat

Once again it was beautiful, the geese loved swimming along the side of our boat, we saw a few tiny baby geese, we had fun trying to pedal really fast and then also going really slow just to savor the cool breeze. The best part of the whole day was just being TOGETHER with my husband! Walking hand in hand where ever we went. We did some more shopping and snacking and then came home and watched my two dollar movie purchase from DI "Ever After" It is such a sweet love story.

"And they lived happily ever after"

I have been so blessed and I am so grateful to everyone that has touched my life for good.

P.S Thank you to my Mother who gave birth to me! I have had a wonderful thirty years!
