Being happy doesn't mean that everything is perfect.
It means you've decided to look beyond the imperfections...
An absolutely beautiful day. Barely seventy degrees, with no humidity.
I talked Maggie and Mary Kate into swimming at the pool with Rosie. Gracie was at her golf and tennis camp (and showed up at the pool, with her camp girlfriends.) All four girls, laughing and happily splashing in the pool. While I read my book, sipped an ice cold Diet Coke, and admired their form off the diving board.
Finished Swamplandia, by Karen Russell (well written, quirky, but very sad), and started The Bride's House, by Sandra Dallas (love the vintage Colorado mining town setting).

And then came the stomach flu...
Ah, summer.

Molly what a gift. If I close my eyes and dream...I think I can remember the days of the 70 degree weather! Happy day here because the boys came home...smiles...Renee
I hope recovery from the stomach flu comes quickly so that you can get back to enjoying summer. Such a cozy picture of the pillows on your couch.
PS. The girls (and Chris) are sleeping outside in the treehouse this evening. With the low humidity, they are game to try it out. I have an early morning at work and am content to have the entire house to myself.
Sounds like a perfect summer day at your house, until...
I am so sorry that the folks at your house are not well. Hope you all feel better tomorrow.
Sorry I hope you are passed the worst.Things are lookin great at your place otherwise.
the weather was just perfect today!
love your sofa and Cath K pillows! What size insert do you use? My down inserts are just too big. the one's the covers actually came with are too small i think and not down.
hope you are feeling better! both my husband and i had a weird 24 hr stomach bug, flu thing :(
Cath Kidston pillows on the couch! That would make a girl happy! Hope you are feeling better soon.

Absolutely everything about your home is charming! Even your weather is fabulous...it was 100 plus degrees with 100% humidity here in NC yesterday...too hot to even step outside!! Hope you're on the mend and back at the pool today enjoying summer.
Why do all good things have to come to an end. Trust you are better today.
Wow, I was reading your lovely post, thinking what a dreamy day you were having and then when you mentioned the stomach flu it was like someone ripped the needle off the record player... I hope everyone is well again. Boo on the stomach flu!
