Our Weekend

Friday was one of those days that you just survive?  One of those days were you literally drag your children up the stairs when it's finally time for nap.  You know the kind.

But the boys took a nap, I got some downtime (and perhaps some chocolate) and the moods improved in everyone. 

The boys were particularly delighted when we told them that after dinner, we were going to go swimming!!!!  It's one of their favorite things.

I made a pasta dinner then we got our gear and met our friends at the local pool.

It was a great time.  Benjamin swam so hard.....he was doing so good, I was really proud of him.  And Jonah loves the water.  Sleeping in the next morning is another added bonus of swimming on Friday nights :-)

Saturday we had our typical lazy breakfast then headed out to run a few errands at Target and Costco.  We ate enough samples to not need to buy additional lunch....perfect day in my book!

The boys napped, we vegged, then we went to our local furniture store to browse around.  The store is awesome....it literally has boats, busses, and old cars hanging in it.  With two ponds and airplanes and animals.....the boys loooved it.  After dinner and baths Ben watched Kung Fu Panda (shocker) while Jonah climbed the stairs over and over.  He's learned super quickly how to go backwards the safe way.

Today was church, lunch leftovers, naps, oil changes for the cars....nice low, key Sunday.  We also went to our Sunday night fellowship since a new series was starting on Jeremiah.  I try to keep the boys quiet and occupied in the corner of the room so they're not too loud and distracting.  It's very low key for the Bible study, but still, it's a workout nonetheless.  Speaking of workouts, trying to get a picture of a 1 year old and 3 year old where they're both at least kinda looking at the camera.  Yeah, that's a workout.

I have more pictures to post but there's about 4 minutes left until Downton Abbey so gotta go y'all....priorities right? :-)
