A Good Day

Yesterday was a good day. Just one of those days that it's good to be alive and enjoy the little things.

I took advantage of the beautiful weather and read a book by the water on my lunch. It was quiet and relaxing coupled with the perfect tempature with the sun on my skin and a calm gentle breeze.

While cleaning out the Jeep (which clearly doesn't happen very often) I found a wedding card with money! How lucky is that? Cam and I decided we are going to spend that money on something extra special in New York.

The evening was spent in the best way possible: with my family (the evening did have one large downside in the fact that Cam had school - I hate going to things without him).
Trent and Amy hosted an awesome Cinco de Mayo party - good food, good friends, good times.

(the second downside to the evening was a tearful good-bye with Jamie as she is leaving for the next 4 months. I know it isn't forever but I can't think of the last time I went 4 weeks without seeing my sisters - tear)

To top off my awesome day - I had a cheap fill up at the pump.

(I hope you can sense the sarcasm)

I will be grateful though that gas prices haven't gone up for the past month.

Life continues to be good and enjoying the small things is what it is all about.
