Celebrating Friday Eve

Because it’s absolutely a thing, and tonight, we’re making the most of it.

We’ve had all of the windows and doors open today, letting the fresh, cool air (it luckily rained overnight, getting rid of some of the pollen that’s been covering everything in a yellow haze) come swooshing through the house. We finished our work early, though it took what seemed like forever to complete, and got started on dinner. We’re making this chicken and rice casserole recipe, but we’re doctoring it a little by adding spinach and crumbled up goldfish for a crispy topping because that’s all we have on hand at the moment. Sometimes you gotta do what you gotta do.

We’re swaying to music (Morning Radio on Pandora) while we cook and the boys put together educational puzzles. It’s been a gorgeous day, staying close to 70 degrees with a cool breeze. The kiddos have been in and out playing on the slide and the trampoline. Maybe we’ll go for a walk after dinner.

Thinking of ending the night with a glass of wine, popcorn, and catching up on the newest episode of Little Fires Everywhere on Hulu. Though on evenings like these, when the sun is shining just right and the music is so good, we kind of don’t ever want it to end.

Sending you light and love, friends, and we hope your Friday Eve is filled with wonder.
