A Relaxation Weekend

It has been a week since we returned from our vacation. It always takes us a few days to get settled back in at home and to get back in the groove of things. We had a great week, we unpacked, got organized and continued to enjoy and savor the fact that I am home with the girls!! We were so happy that Kevin was able to spend some extra time at home this weekend and we certainly enjoyed it!
We had a fun evening with our dear friends on Friday night and the kiddos had fun playing after dinner. Indeed, we are brave taking four little ones aged 4-3 months out for dinner on a Friday night, however, the four of us adults are always up for an adventure, and it helps that we have four great munchkins. Saturday we hung around the house getting some things done and having some fun playtime. Tess loves to play make-believe and I find myself often driving a pretend "cool (school) bus" she makes sure we buckle up and then we practice stopping at red lights (I figure the sooner the better to practice driving safety, the next 14 years will go by too quickly) and then we arrive at school (cool in Tess terms) Tess usually gets to be the teacher, which certainly fits her personality and Ella and I are her students. The two of us usually behave :)
It was also enjoyable that our nephew Tony was able to join us for the evening Saturday and then for church on Sunday. We enjoyed him and we hope he had a good time. Tess kept him going, she loved having some one older around to play with. Her energy gives anyone a run for their money and the same was true for Tony, she just wanted him to go, go, go!
Weekends are great and when it is family time, it is wonderful!!
