For being a stay-at-home mom I tend to have a very busy schedule that keeps me on the run a lot. One of my favorite things is being the worship leader at my church. I absolutely love getting into the presence of God and leading the congregation there and I rarely take a weekend off. But this was one of those weekends.
We had an extra busy weekend last weekend with special guests from Bethel Church, so my wonderful Pastor suggested that I take this weekend off. So I did, and what a great weekend it was.
We spent Friday evening with our nieces and nephews just hanging out, ordered pizza and enjoying some company.
Saturday it happened that BG went to see his mom for the weekend so we slept in, a very rare occurrence in our house. When we did get up and moving we got to enjoy some beautiful sunshine and warm weather. I spent part of my day getting started on cleaning up the winter mess in my yard. Kimberly and I even went for a bike ride. We rented movies and made dinner together. And like any good ICarly fan we made spaghetti tacos.
Sunday we went to breakfast with Grandma. Her birthday was earlier in week so we took the morning to spend some time with her. We then had plans to go to the water park. We have this wonderful friend Maureen, who works there and she blessed us with a pass for the day. We swam the lazy river and climbed the stairs to the top of the tunnel slides. My little dare devil girl loves the tube slide. Then spent some relaxing time in the hot tub.
All in all it was a wonderfully relaxing weekend spent with my family. We laughed and snuggled and had fun together with no schedule and no agenda. I'm so blessed to have such amazing people in my life and I'm very thankful for every one of them. And tomorrow I'll get back to the regular crazy busy schedule of cleaning house, doing laundry, running after kids, and preparing for Sunday morning. My life is really great and I am truly blessed in so many ways.
