A day with nothing to do...

Our first day in California we did nothing but sit around the house with some of our favorite family members... Grandma, aunt Kathy, and cuz Mellissa.  Sometimes the most simple days are the best and I cannot tell you the last time Mike and I had a day off together.  It was so wonderful to drink coffee all day while the rain came down.  There was so much cooking and delicious food for us to share.  Mellissa and I even went down to the general store on the corner and bought scratcher tickets.  We won $17 but then Mellissa went back down and bought more tickets with our winnings and we won nothing... Oh well it was fun.  The best part of the day was watching Tommy build and create relationships with his family members.  Tommy loves his Grandma like crazy, and he loves to flirt with his aunt Kathy, but yesterday Tommy really took a liking to his cuz Mellissa.  They are 28 years apart but it was so cute to watch them play and run around together.  Tommy had Mellissa trained, when he bonks the floor with an object of any type Mellissa jumps and reacts and Tommy just thinks it's the best thing that ever happened. It was so cute to watch him follow her around the house and look for her.  My world has been a little stressful lately and this day was much needed.
