A perfect weekend!

Have you ever had one of the amazing weekends that you wish you could have over and over again? Well I just had one of those! No, we didn't go to some magical resort, no high priced restaurant, no big spending spree, in fact we didn't even leave our house! We spent the entire Labor Day weekend at home having fun and enjoying the incredible weather! Saturday we walked to a little festival, then came home and drug out the old badminton set from the backyard shed and that was the entire days activity, oh, I must not forget playing frisbee also. I'm talking the entire day, only coming in to eat and potty breaks!! The kids' may have had cold ham and cheese sandwiches for dinner, but they didn't care at all! We played hard together this weekend and it was pure bliss! For those of you that don't know me, this is something that I usually don't partake in, my husband is the one who plays with the boys' outside all the time. I hit the basketball around here and there and do daily walks, but nothing this strenuous. It was a blast even though my aching muscles are thinking differently, LOL!
We even watched a movie last night, Alvin and the Chipmunks, the Squeakuel. It was a cute movie, everyone enjoyed it.
This weekend will definately be stored in my best memories box somewhere in my noggin! Nathan said it was his best weekend ever, LOL! You know when you're 10 every fun thing becomes "the best ever" :)
I even managed to do some cleaning and wash several loads of laundry today!
What I learned from this weekend, is that the kids' need me to be more involved physically. I'm already counting down the days till the next weekend, but I know come 3:30 tomorrow, they'll be wanting me to go outside and "play" also :)
