School, September Mornings, and Going Out on a School Night

This week's Three Beautiful Things:

1.  Nathan won't stop talking about how much fun he had at school and how he can't wait to go back.  "They have a van and a truck there, Mom!  And a fire truck in the playground!"  Love.

2.  Is there anything better than a beautiful day in September?  Crisp mornings, clear blue skies, sunny afternoons, cool evenings.  Perfection.

3.  My sister-in-law had baseball tickets, so Kevin and I found a babysitter and went out on a Tuesday night.  This is unprecedented.  I honestly can't remember the last time we went out during the week.  The kids were great, and we had an awesome night at Fenway.  My beloved Red Sox are in last place, so I wasn't expecting much of a game, but we managed to beat the dreaded Yankees in the bottom of the ninth inning.  Fun!
