Just A Swingin'

Man...15 days since I've made a post...no excuse really...just super busy.


This past weekend the weather was wonderfully beautiful. It was also the first weekend in quite some time that we had NOTHING planned. With that said we made the decision to spend some much needed time on our yard.

Since it was so nice the kids joined us outside for most of the day. While Luke was fairly helpful....he was great at bringing things you needed...picking up weeds....Kate pretty much wanted to hang out and look good.


Being pregnant last year made me unable/unwilling to do much gardening...so our flower beds got pretty much out of control. So that's what we decided to remedy. After two days, some sunburn and a lot of sore muscles....waaaalaaaa.

I know it looks a little bare...but we are going to add a tree and some plants in May.

We finished each day pushing the kids on the swings. This was a huge hit and Kate's first time on a swing.



While it was a very tiring weekend, it was so nice to spend two straight days home with the family and no distractions. We often get pulled in so many directions and plan too many activities. But it's these times that really make be thankful for my beautiful, healthy family.
