Last Saturday, after pancakes and cleaning, we went into Milwaukee to retrieve our Izzy from a sleepover with her good friend Elizabeth. After a quick cup of coffee with Elizabeth's parents we continued our way south to Milwaukee's lakefront. Milwaukee has a pretty fantastic lakefront. Almost the entire stretch of Lake Michigan beachfront adjacent to downtown is parks or community space. Very nice!
We had a picnic lunch, chatted with the locals,
inspected the marina,
and flew a kite (with an Obama visit/ rally in the background). It was one of those occasions when I try to deeply inhale the bouquet of my family, hoping to remember every last detail of the afternoon because I love them all, right then and there, so much.

Your last sentence was so poetic. I know exactly what you mean. Too bad life doesn't have a pause button on occasions like this.
