Some weekends, it is nice not to have anything to rush around to so you can kick back and relax a little bit more than some weekends. Friday night, we kicked off the weekend with breakfast for dinner and then the boys played Aquadoodle on the floor for what seemed like hours. Saturday morning, they decided to skip Soccer since it was really cold (and I wasn't about to argue for the same reason). We were planning on just hanging around the house all day. That morning, we had an unplanned visit from the boys' best friend, Carac. Carac was a little disappointed that the boys skipped Soccer, so he came to them instead. They had such a blast playing with him upstairs and showing him all their toys while the parents all visited downstairs. Later that afternoon we did venture to Toys R Us for a few birthday and christmas presents. The boys were clueless that we were buying gifts for our family. We ended the evening with the boys playing throughout the house (and I mean throughout by the evidence left behind), while mom and dad relaxed.
Sunday started out as normal with a big breakfast for the boys while mommy headed to Hot Yoga. After lunch, Connor and mommy went to a classmate's birthday party. The theme was Smurf and the whole backyard was setup like a Smurf Village including a mushroom house, Papa Smurf's Lab (Koolaid and Pop Rocks), and Smurf hats for everyone. This classmate's mom thought of everything! The kids ran around and had a lot of fun while mommy got to visit with and meet some of the classmates' parents. The rest of Sunday was more fun for the boys around the house. The laundry baskets were the focus of the day. When they weren't using them as TV pods, they were used as stadiums for Connor to conduct interviews about our local Zoo.
These low-key weekends are nice, but I know we are also looking forward to the next couple weekends of Halloween fall fun!
