Our Weekend

We had such a fun weekend over here! With the weather finally warm and nice it leaves lots of time to get outside and do things.

You can't start a weekend...or any day, really, without coffee for me and breakfast for Brooklynn. Friday was oatmeal. I'm going to do a post soon of all the fun things we eat around here. Some healthy...some not so much but we do try.

 We try to get out early on the weekends and get things done so that we can come back and get in a quick nap for Brooklynn later in the day. She stays awake a little later now with the sun setting later which is a-okay by me because that means fun late nights during the summer are coming!! When we moved in our house we knew that our kitchen table would fit but wasn't all that fitting for the space. Ideally, we'd have a booth against the window and a long skinny table with chairs on the other side. Right now we have our square table from Target that we got when we got married and it's on it's last leg...literally. So, we hit up our Habitat store with high hopes but no such luck. 

We left, ran and got some groceries for Memorial Day, hit a children's consignment store, and headed home for B to get in a nap before heading to my parent's neighborhood pool. 

For dinner we ate out with the family. Growing up, not only did my parents celebrate our birthdays but we also celebrated each others Spiritual Birthdays - the day we decided to follow Jesus. And yes, we still try and celebrate them so we out to celebrate John's Spiritual Birthday at Cheddar's then walked around the mall. 

Saturday we went on a little walk around our neighborhood. I'd much rather do that than hit the gym. We put Brooklynn down for an early nap then hit the pool again. Brooklynn is getting quickly accustomed to the water but it didn't help that it's still below freezing! Husband was a champ and played in the water with her.

For dinner, my BIL cooked dinner for everyone at my parents house and we grabbed some ice cream at Dillard's -- Brookylnn's favorite ;)

Sunday we worshipped at church, ate lunch with family at our local Japanese Steakhouse, spent some time at a graduation party, Husband hung out with some friends from his home town that are camping nearby and I enjoyed some hot tea and TV on the couch.

I hope you enjoyed your weekend & Happy Memorial Day! Enjoy time with your families/friends/pets/whoever ;)
