Last night felt particularly lovely.
We dropped Cate and Johnny off to a Halloween party and took the younger two to a little park in Jacksonville. John and I have been wanting to play tennis for quite a while now. So while William and Matthew reacquainted themselves with the playground apparatus (it's been since March), John and I volleyed tennis balls back and forth. The chill in the air, the sun setting over the mountains, the vibrant fall colors at twilight: it was a feeling I want to bottle up to taste again on another day.
It was an evening where everyone seemed to get along so well, and we were all feeling happy. After we picked up the big kids we went home and Johnny made cookies while we watched a movie together. It was such a good night.
