A Beautiful Sunny Sunday

You know, when the sunshine smiles down on me it really makes my day and I hope many others! Today was just that. it actually was not sunny when we woke up, but by 11:00 the sun was out in full force, and we were walking around an awesome park about ten minutes away with new friends. For those back home, think of Woodward Park but a bit larger, and I'm told with a water park, though we didn't see it today. We did see the Japanese Gardens and we played on the rainbow hammocks. Notice the shoes set on the ground, no shoes allowed on the hammocks. Loved that! Anyways, I have found my oasis in the middle of the desert; my heart is happy. This park makes you feel like you are out in the middle of nature . . . OK, the paved pathways and numerous bathrooms sure are handy but still, it's peaceful and green, NO buildings, NO cars, NO concrete. It's lovely. And hey, when you are a pregnant lady numerous bathrooms aren't such a bad thing. Two additional cool things worth noting in the later part of our day were: while taking a bike ride on base, as we crossed the flight line, we rode under 4 gigantic helicopters coming in for a landing. That was pretty cool, I must admit. The other awesome thing was . . . our hot dogs buns coming out bee-U-tiful! haven't tasted them yet . . . I know, crazy! But I already brushed my teeth, and toothpaste kills the flavor in everything. So tomorrow we'll warm them up in the oven and hopefully taste something delicious! It was a cooperative effort and so far, from the look of the final product and smell of our house, I think it was a success.

I hope everyone had (or has, for those back home) a lovely Sunday too.

Love to everyone!
