Days off.
Days off from work are few and far between for me.
I love them.
This particular day off was the best of the best. After a luxurious sleep in, Mer and I headed out to Brooklyn for a lazy day in the sun at St. Balmain. I had planned to catch up with my friend (and past featured World Changer) Diane, so we all convened in Williamsburg.
The sun was out, and the back deck of St. Balmain was bustling with people.
I love that when I catch up with Diane, I also get to hangout with her son Levi. He is the most incredible little person and will totally be a famous drummer someday.
Diane got the Breakfast Sandwich.
I had the Green Breakfast Bowl...
...and then the Hipster Brownie.
Levi was a constant source of energy and entertainment for everyone hanging at St. Balmain.
Diane and I decided to take some really awesome "Prom" shots. I love friends that you can laugh a lot with and just be yourself.
Enjoy.
Levi has an obsession with Superman, so he was ready to go when Steve picked him up to fly.
After sunning at St. Balmain, we wandered over to the Williamsburg waterfront. Mer perched on a picnic table for a lounge in the sun.
I decided to join for a bit.
Then Levi wanted to play. He affectionately nicknamed Meredith "Mary"... "Hey Mary!"
Levi then decided to run around in the grass. Shoes off and straight into the mud. Totally kid style, but look at that view!
I decided to take advantage of Diane's amazing photography skills. Check out her company Spanglish Studios.
That NYC skyline is just the best...especially on a crystal clear blue sky day.

Days like this are so refreshing. It is important to take moments to rest, relax and refill. Living in New York is busy. It is non stop and people are pulling at you in millions of directions. But, strong community and understanding how you can refresh are key to fullness and survival. Praying you all have the best week ever.
