Since the markets were closed today, I didn't have to go into work. And all day, these birds have been singing, twittering, and chatting their beautiful melodies outside in the trees by my house. It has brought a smile to my face every time I think of it and every time I hear it.

OMG, this is awesome.

I had a wonderful weekend that also felt like I packed a lot in (even though it was normal length). Saturday morning, my mom and I held a seminar at the church where J and I got married a year ago.

Then, all three of us had lunch and went out to watch the Spiderwick Chronicles (pretty good!) and had Coldstone Creamery ice cream afterwards (we made them sing for us), shopped at Draeger's (a fancy Wholefoods/Williams Sonoma/Papyrus mashup), and did some shopping. We chased ducks, walked in the sprinkling rain, and had a wonderful time. My mom had such a good time, she said she was putting it in her journal. YAY!

Then, we came home and napped. Afterwards, we went to DC's house to play board games and then later in the evening, my beloved CB (formerly of CM) stayed the night and we chatted a long time! Next morning, made omelets and juice and hung out some more.

I had a phone appointment for work and then I chatted with KL in NYC. (Feel better soon!!) Then, J and I met up AW and JN at the Bridges Restaurant in downtown Danville (where they filmed Mrs. Doubtfire). Then we came home to play some more board games. And we were happy to spend our first anniversary with friends we love and care about! whooohoooo!

Happy days, indeed.
