::Downtown Raleigh::, Days {58-63}, *The Kite Runner*

Our weekend was *really* fun! Friday night Angelina and Zoe spent the night at my parent's house, which left me a night to myself... AWESOME!! I went to Archiver's and scrapbooked!! Yay! Saturday morning I went and picked Mike up from the airport, and we then came home, and napped. Which was awesome, considering how tired I suddenly was when Mike got in the car. It's weird. I am an insomniac when he isn't home, and I can't seem to fall asleep. But, as soon as I see Mike standing at the curb outside of the airport, a sense of relief comes over me. My husband is my security. When he is home, I feel secure. I feel happy. Our family is complete... even if only for a couple of days. :)

After we napped, we meet my parents and our children in Downtown Raleigh. They were having a street fair called "Raleigh Wide Open". We had a lot of fun! The weather has been phenomenal for the past several days, which is so wonderful!! Not to mention *so* rare! Anyway. Here are some photos I took during Raleigh Wide Open! It is getting late, and I need to *try* and get some sleep. Mike left really early this morning for California. The girls and I leave for California on Wednesday late morning to join Mike, and to visit some friends and family while out there, so we are really looking forward to that. :) I am currently watching the movie Elizabethtown, which is turning out to be a great movie!! :) Check it out if you haven't seen it.

More tomorrow! ;)

***Oh, and by the way... I finished The Kite Runner. OK. This book is high up on my *must read* book list!! What an excellent book!! The writer is very descriptive. I mean, I could actually envision things. I love that. Love that I can feel like I was there. There are sad parts in this book, but overall, it was excellent!! I can't wait to read his next book, "A Thousand Splendid Suns".***
