There was playing and cleaning up.  There were happy children.  There was outside with friends play, all day.  There was welcoming Gramma Lissa for a visit!  There was leaf blowing in the sunshine-y yard.  There was cafe mocha and a bookstore.  There was a board game.  There was sushi!  There are tired, but not cranky, children.  There was time to relax and time to spend with each other.  There was recipe making and reading.  There was a photo shoot.  There was laundry and face paint.  There will be sleep, sweet sleep, before too long!
