July in January
A serious wave of cabin fever hit me today. So Peter and I put our heads together and came up with this:
We planned to have a picnic dinner. Natalie and I made the sunshine. We decorated with the beach towel and tent and wore our sunglasses. I even changed into shorts and a tank top and sandals (brrr!!) to get in the spirit of the event. Peter picked up cold cuts, chips, and the makings of ice cream cones. I made a macaroni salad. We put on fun summery music on the computer and had a great time. Peter's folks came over and enjoyed the dessert with us. Natalie was parading around in her new Mutti nightgown (that she'd worn all day), and Charlotte was sporting a summer hat for the occasion and soaking up the social time as usual.
I also made plans with another mommy to get out with the kids tomorrow while Peter goes to the gym. I'm feeling much better now...until the next wave hits! :)
