Slowin' It Down

The recent weather made for a perfect weekend to slow down, relax and enjoy some family time at home. So by golly that's what we did. I'm pretty sure my husband would say it was boring but it was certainly my kind of weekend. If only I had done a grocery run to cook up some delicious fall recipes beforehand! Oh well. Back to the weekend of nothing crazy...

Friday morning we had a breakfast play date with our favorite little girlies! Poor Mason. Mommy got so amped up about the "cool" weather that I put him in jeans and a long sleeve thermal shirt. An hour and a half of playing in the play area and he was drenched it sweat. My bad buddy.

Loved getting to chat and catch up with these girls Mommy! We laugh about how choppy our conversation is when we have the kids but it's always fun anyway.

And on a funny note, Mallory likes the show Paw Patrol and being the sponge she is picked up on the character in the show named Chickaletta. Apparently that's close enough to Chick-fil-a so you can guess what she calls it. Let's go have breakfast at Chickaletta! She's so goofy.

Later, I needed to do a Target run and wouldn't you know the flood gates opened as we were leaving. The kids thought it was so fun so we ran and squealed and made the best of getting soaked! (When you live in a major drought area these moments are rare treats!)

Took a pic to show Daddy we got all wet! :)

Friday night we had no plans and no groceries so we decided to do date nights with the kids. It was my turn with Mal again so we headed to Chilis. It was great getting to spend some one on one time with my girl and Daddy had fun with Bubba.

All ready for our date!

She loved the pretzels Aunt Lacye! Thanks, I am addicted now!

My sweet boy had fun with Daddy but was pretty tired after not getting a good nap.

Saturday we started the rainy day with some homemade pigs in a blanket (that I happened to have ingredients on hand for, score) and some playtime around the house. Then we watched the disappointing Texas Tech game under the heater out on the patio. We enjoyed cheering them on even though we lost.

Practicing those guns up!

Screaming like Mommy did after a red raider touchdown!

My dear loving sister brought us dinner that night and we got to love on baby Hud for a few minutes. Mason was especially into him! Thanks again Mami!

Today we worked on planning an upcoming trip, played, and I spent the evening cleaning all 4 bathrooms! After all that laziness, I had to do something productive. It only took me almost 3 hours. (I don't recommend buying a house with 4 potties! Ha!)

Hope you all enjoyed the weather and the weekend!
