Perfect.

One word to describe yesterday that is because it was.

I slept in until 8 a.m. ;) and was on my way to the kitchen for my first cup of coffee when I remembered my promise from last night.  Bella was sitting on the living room floor surrounded by Legos.  I promised the night before that we could put all the sets together and build a city, and it seems someone did not forget.  So I made my coffee and we began our first piece, a set that can be made into 3 different houses.  She picked the house, and we began.  While we built, Vince made a yummy breakfast.  I finally came up for air around 11, changed into some yard work clothes, and Vince and I headed outside to do some more tree clean-up.  Bella opted to stay indoors and continue building while enjoying some Pandora.  We got in a good hour of tree removal before heading back in to shower and eat lunch.  I walked out to put Bella's lunch on her table only to discover a passed out kiddo on the sofa.  Talk about some intense Lego play <3  She slept for about 2 hours before waking up all confused and apologizing for falling asleep.  so.sweet.

During her nap, I made a trip to Lowe's for one more can of spray paint for her table, some blackout shades for her window, 2 lamp shades and some paint chip samples to make garland with.  Once home, I promptly fell asleep watching Phineas & Ferb with B-bo and ended up taking a 2 hour nap.  Guess I was sleepy.  Once awake, Vince and I headed back out to do a little more tree removal before it started storming.  Great.workout.

Bella was in bed by 8:30, and while I prepped the Hogwart's castle set for construction on Monday, Vince watched some football.  We were in bed by 10:30 in order to begin getting back into a routine for the school year.  I set the alarm for 6 a.m. and fell asleep to a starry ceiling and thunderstorm brewing outside.

perfect.day.

*I made it up by 6:45 Monday morning... gotta start somewhere.
