Our two oldest kids and I are enjoying Happy Hour at SONIC Drive-In. We ordered a strawberry fruit slush, a lemon-berry fruit slush and a Route 44 Dr. Pepper. Can you guess which one I ordered?!
We then spent the rest of the daylit afternoon at the playground. I love it when the kids are out of school.

I arrived in Louisville, Kentucky today for the AECT International Conference. On the advice of a shuttle driver we drove out to eat supper at Paradise Cafe. It is an eclectic place...to say the least. There are fun and clever litttle details everywhere.
