A Recipe for a Perfect Day

A Recipe for a Perfect Day

October 14, 2013

Eight years ago today I became a mommy! Yep, Monday was Luke's 8th birthday!

It was a perfect fall day and I knew I wanted to try to savor every moment!

The day started out like any other… plus a happy birthday serenade from Domenic and I!

Up at 6:45

Breakfast at 7:15

Fed Zack at 7:30

Leave the house at 8:00

Drop Nick at St. Jude's at 8:15

Take Luke to the bus at 8:30

(I am going to miss this routine in a few weeks)

I came home with a sleepy baby... And decided to go for a run!

2.8 miles...plus abs on the front porch! Go me!

Sack conked out on his ride! Then stayed asleep listening to the black-eyed peas Pandora station! Silly baby!

After doing a little work in my closet, we ventured out for the day!

Got to love free coffee after the Eagles won Sunday!

The trees were gorgeous as I drove to Luke's school to surprise him as a lunch mom!

He was so excited!

After an afternoon routine of pick ups… Luke picked the restaurant for dinner!

 Texas Roadhouse!!! 

I was just as excited as he was!

 Him to ride the saddle… Me for steak and baked potatoes!

There was singing… Yee-haw-ing… And of course the birthday dessert!!!

It was a bit of a juggling act… But everyone had fun!!

Happy birthday Luke! We all love you so much!

... And it was a most perfect day!!!
