4 More Days (Slice #27 - Today)

There is quite possibly nothing better than spending the entire day just "hanging out" with my little sister. Before the sun even thought about peaking over the horizon, Heather was snuggled in my bed, giving me kisses on the forehead and informing me that we needed to make waffles. So we did. 

After a mild waffle fiasco, in which waffles were stuck and burned to both top and bottom of the waffle maker, we finally sat together at the table and enjoyed a leisurely breakfast. Conversation consisted of nesting birds, "that crazy Emeril" on the cooking channel, and the plan for the day - an extremely important piece of information for my sister. 

Once we were dressed and ready, we left home for a day packed with adventure! To any other person, our day probably seemed typical, if not boring. But to us, it was full of excitement! We started with lunch at Cheddars - just to make Aaron jealous - and then embarked on a lengthy tour of SAM's Club. At SAM's, Heather purchased a four-pack of old school Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles movies and was elated with her newest acquisition. To be honest, I was too!

Next, we visited Target, where Heather got to print a picture of Maggie, one of the dog friends she played with for much of the week. This might have even been better for her than the movie purchase! After Target was Petland, at which we discovered the world's most adorable, cuddly, snuggly, kissing, loving little poodle mix. Had I had a spare $1500 (which I most certainly did not), Heathet would have been the proud owner of him too!

The rest of the afternoon included a trip to the library, the grocery store, two friends' houses, playtime with our own puppies, and more! We both are exhausted and yet our hearts are full. I just wish we could have days like today more often.
