you are my...

...sunshine!
absolutely magically goodness. In movies we always note how as soon as there's a depressing scene, the weather suddenly changes to overcast and rainy. Have you ever noticed how the weather actually does effect our moods? For example: yesterday the weather was overcast and I had some drudgy feeling all day I couldn't shake. On the other hand, today was absolutely GORGEOUS - 85 and sunny. perfectly southern sunshine day. and yes, I do believe my fantastic mood today was influenced by such good weather. 



Goodness we had fun today. A large portion of the clan went down to Fish River to kayak. Quite the adventure. I will admit, my siblings are not what you would call outdoorsy so I was anxiously awaiting their reaction to the whole idea of hopping into a plastic boat and paddling down waters infested with gators and bugs and fish - oh my! (though thankfully we didn't dramatically encounter any of the above)


they all took to the water just fine :) we packed a lunch and went upstream for about an hour then stopped under a bridge to eat some lunch...sadly one of the sandwiches didn't survive the journey there.
"hey dad! this is my first time eating a pancake sitting in a kayak under a bridge with real cars on it!"
Sooo...you've done so under a bridge with fake cars? And I think its absolutely adorable that Mario Cart packed leftover breakfast because he didn't want to make pb&j. 


and so, a good time was had by all. can't wait to go again :)
