Ahh, it feels so nice to sleep in and wake up to such a sunny, beautiful day.

My mother-in-law arrived last night around 8 after a fiasco with her flight. (cancelled? not cancelled? NWA couldn't decide.) But today is a big day - we are going to the Renaissance festival, then possibly to the only castle in MN (Swedish Museum? depends on how much time is left).

Matt is making breakfast and asked if I could turn on some Irish music, so I'm dancing in my chair as I write this. What fun! I am seriously so affected by the style of music I listen to. I really need to schedule a Saturday night trip to a pub with my friends to listen to some live Irish music... It's time for chocolate chip pancakes - time to run!
