A weekend to remember

It’s been a good couple of days. Real good.  Not anything special or out of the ordinary, just good ole family time well spent.  Nothing humbles me and makes me feel more blessed than reflecting on weekends like these.

 

Although Meme had to work the whole weekend, we still had good QT!  We sure did miss her though.

 

Saturday morning, daddy went to help his mom and dad do some yard work, so Mia and I went to eat breakfast with Poppy and B.  After breakfast we had an impromptu shopping date.  Just the four of us!  There wasn’t a whole lot of buying, but instead just enjoying each others company and being together. 

Mia rode some overly priced, generic mall rides…

And Ben enjoyed some Starbucks…

He is such an old-man-trapped-in-a-young-mans-body type of kid!  Wouldn’t trade him for the world!

And look what Poppy bought for Mia…

Are those not the cutest??  Thank you Pops!

 

When daddy got done shopping, we met him at the local sushi bar and had lunch/dinner! 

 

We came home for a bit and daddy and Mia played on the slip-n-slide!

Don’t let him fool you, he had just as much, if not more, fun as she did!  Love those two!

Oh and we had some kiddie pool time…

Melt my heart!

 

After Meme got off work, we all went to the local theatre and watched “What to Expect When You’re Expecting.”  It. Was. Hilarious!

 

This morning we got up, went to church and ABF, the mall for Mia a shirt* (more to come on that later!), and then to Aunt Terri’s and Uncle Charlie’s for a swim party/cookout!

 

I woke up to this…

And then he dunked her.  Completely.

She didn’t mind at all!  Such water bugs!

Even the dog enjoyed a nice swim!

 

Dave and I then went to our final marriage class/seminar.  I just love being around a bunch of Christian married couples in all stages of life.  Such a good mentor/mentee experience!

 

After that long and fun weekend, I’m ready for a chill day :)
