How come the weekends go by so fast yet that stretch of time every weekday from ...oh, about 4:00 p.m. until sometimes 7:00 p.m. can feel like an entire day? That's how many weekdays go around here a lot of the time and that is definitely how this past weekend flew by. Sunday we went to a big family cook-out and I think it really wore us all out. It was nice enough to be outside around the fire and that is where the kids stayed, unless they were inside eating or warming up with a cup of hot chocolate. The kids spent their time climbing trees, trying to skip rocks in the pond, crawling through the big drain ditch, going on adventures through the corn with the "big kid" cousins, roasting marshmallows and climbing up the huge mound of dirt. The adults got to do a lot of
visiting with family--which to me is just as important as the kids having a chance to run around outside for a few hours. Oh and how I love coming home and still smelling like a fire. What else could you possibly want to do on a
Sunday in October?
