It's Monday.

It's Monday and we are at home today. We are off for the day to honor MLK's birthday. We watched a movie - My Friend, Martin - this past week at school. The kids enjoyed it and it allowed for great conversation. In the movie, you are given a glimpse of what life would be like had MLK not done the things he did. It was not a pretty world. 

It's Monday and a Monday at home means a lazy morning. Coffee, fire and the Today Show. 

And trains. 

MK has had this train set for two or three years now and rarely pulls it out. When she does decide she wants to use it, it's like opening a brand new gift and she is captivated. She's also super patient as she waits for Mommy to put it all together. It's quite tedious. 

It's Monday and after a little relaxing I took my girl for a little breakfast date. Dunkin Donut style. Daddy was out fishing and we settled for donuts. I think we got the better end.

 The Strawberry Sprinkle donut is by far my favorite.

MK enjoyed the sprinkle donut holes and the chocolate covered donuts. We were sweet and brought Daddy a few, too.

It's Monday and while we we were out on our donut excursion, we saw the new Zoe's Kitchen that is now opening in our part of town. I.Am.So.Excited. Owens and Trenholm have one on their side of town and I LOVE it. I can't wait for it to be five minutes from my house.

It's Monday and I think all Mondays should be days at home.
