The past two weekends have been so relaxing. Last Saturday I think I only left the house once and not until 6pm. We just had a lazy day at home and cleaned up a bit. This weekend Kyle and I had date night Friday night. Saturday we went and had breakfast at my parents’. I got to meet my brother’s girlfriend finally. Then we all hiked the Butte. Both kids did great! It was Andrew’s first time climbing it on his own. He did at least half of the climb up on his own. We had to help him most of the way down. Abby was in the lead the way up and way down! Then we went to my parents’ for lunch. And then we had a lazy Saturday at home. I cleaned up. I love my house when it’s clean! It makes me so happy. I had time to look through my seed catalog and plan this year’s garden. I had time to do an art project with the kids- watercolor painting an alphabet book. We had our family meeting and Kyle cooked a delicious dinner- salmon, black beans and chard salad.
I felt so good after not eating carbs, not full just satisfied. Nothing makes me happier than when Kyle cooks me dinner! And his dinners are always good! Like my dad says -Kyle doesn’t do anything halfway! This is the good part of being married to a perfectionist:)
Today the kids and I headed out early for Sunday school. While they went to Sunday school, I went out to breakfast alone, lovely! Then mass, an incredible sermon and I got to hear it with my baby sitting still in my lap. Andrew didn’t want to be downstairs with the kids today, he wanted to be up with me so he sat through half the mass in silence ! A miracle! It was fun having some company! He liked hearing the organ, seeing the woman do sign language as they sang the songs. Then we had family time- out to lunch then the bookstore. Kyle and I read to the kids. Then this afternoon we went to the Y. The boys played basketball and Abby and I went swimming. I am trying to teach her to swim and she did it today! She only swims a few seconds on her own but we are getting there. She just needs to be more confident and to practice.
A lovely weekend!
