days like these...

Thankfully my Art Class was canceled for today. So, I got to have a day all to myself. A free day, a day to do whatever I wanted. Nice! I'm getting to where I appreciate time to myself more then I ever have before. I guess it's because once Jack and Madi get home, it starts to get real busy around here and we are going non-stop until bed time. Having the day to myself, I was able to finish up the blog post I started writing early yesterday morning (Madi's Birthday wrap up, which I posted earlier), I was able to work on my next project due in Photography class (an abstract black and white photo), and I was able to go outside and enjoy the long awaited sunshine and 75 degree temperature. I love days like these. I also had time to wipe the dust off of my digital (it's been a whole 5 days since I used it!) and play for a little bit, my ultimate favorite thing to do. Since it was just me and the babies (Bella, Tex and Cassie) and because everything outside is still so brown and ugly, I mostly took pictures inside of them. I did get a few pics of some dandelions in our backyard, but I'll save those for a "informative" type post later on. Here are a few of the photo's I took of the wild ones.

This is Tex's "I'm 'bout to get buckwild up in this joint" look. He has been cooped up in the house since his little run-away stunt about a week ago. He gets this crazy look, which you see above, when he is about to lose it and start attacking his sisters. He hates to be in the house all the time, but he'll have to wait until he gets his microchip before he's allowed out again. Sorry little gentleman!

He's such a good subject because he looks right at me (hoping I'll give into his pleading eyes and let him out, I'm sure) when I take pictures.

This is what Bella did ALL day. Either here in the house or in the yard. Sleep. All day. I thought it was so cute when I saw her laying asleep with this tini-tiny rabbit Madi gave her some time back. Bella's pink~sleepy~mouth is just kissable! And the bunny, doesn't he just look happy?! Now that it's five o'clock, the lazy, carefree part of my day has to come to an end and time for the rush to start - Madi to swim, go exercise, pick Madi up from swim, cook and eat dinner, homework, cleaning and baths. But, after the day I had, I can do it all feeling refreshed and ready! That's why I love days like these and I think everyone needs (deserves)one every once in awhile.
