It's dark out, for a late summer mid-afternoon... and it looks like rain.
I love the rain... and these are the kind of days that make you want to curl up with a good book, or watch a movie. The hubby is taking a well deserved nap (as is my Brina)... and the daughter is happily sketching... music playing in the background.
I love these days.

And just in case you want to spend some time on the couch surfing the net...
I have some links that I have gathered to share with you all for the weekend:
