Exodus 15:2a - "The LORD is my strength and song, and he is become my salvation"

Well, I just got home from my first dining out experience since starting this journey. There was a lot of things I would have normally ate that I couldn't (at least for now), but they weren't as tempting as I thought they'd be because there was quite a bit of tasty food that I could eat. Had a fun day. After I worked out and got cleaned up we took the kids to the park. Then went out to dinner. A very enjoyable Saturday!

5 things I’m grateful for:
1. Dry days to play in the park

2. kids' laughter

3. An HHT who is an awesome Daddy

4. card tricks and the wonderment in the eyes of the children who see them

5. fond memories

5 things I did right:
1. Ate what was "legal" at the buffet

2. worked out

3. wore my shoes

4. made my bed

5. spent time with my family
