I took today off of work and decided to just have a day to enjoy the spring weather and recharge myself. I was planning on meeting my Dad this afternoon for lunch and to hang out with him for a bit. Come to find out, my brother was also going to be able to meet us. We ended up having the best afternoon!!
It reminded me off all of our Thursdays nights growing up. Thursdays used to be the night my Dad came to pick us up and we would bum around town for a few hours and grab dinner and just catch up. Some nights we'd go to the park and play, other nights we'd go to the library and then other times we'd go shop for school supplies or clothes or whatever we were in need of at the time.
Today we grabbed lunch, all shopped for new tennis shoes at Kohls (yes...New Reebok Retones!!), stopped into Verizon for a new phone for my Bro (I was too chicken to upgrade my LG EnV2, which I'm still in love with), picked up a new spring skirt for me at Old Navy and browsed Best Buy. It brought back many good memories of all the time we got to spend together as my Bro and I were growing up and it made me cherish the great relationship I still have with both my Dad and Ryan. It's not all that often anymore that our schedules all work out to enjoy time together, but I'm so glad that I had the opportunity today.
I may have to take days off and do this more often....
