This weekend we had a rare 24 hours to ourselves! After the kids' swim lessons and tumble bunnies class they were off to Gram's. I look forward to these weekends so much. I certainly enjoy spending time with my kiddos, and I wish I was with them more, but I do like to have some time to do whatever I want for a day. Also, they really like spending time at Gram's. I had a lot of things on my list to accomplish with my free day, but I only got a few of them done. It's hard to decide whether to work around the house and be productive or just relax and take it easy. I did a little of both. I actually spent time reading and finished my current book. Even though I'm a librarian, I have very little time to read and don't do it a whole lot. It was nice to kick my feet up and enjoy reading again. I just have to quiet that voice in my head that says I should be folding laundry.
Saturday night Mark and I went out to dinner at one of our favorite Italian places and then hit up the new Menard's. I've never been to a Menard's and they just built one down the street from us. It's a bit like Walmart on steroids only with building materials and home goods. It was overwhelming. I can't imagine trying to shop there on a regular basis. I thought Lowe's and Home Depot were big, but they've got nothing on Menard's.
We spent a lazy Sunday going out to breakfast, picking the kids up from Gram's and taking naps. After naps, Mark took Jack to Beck Park and they had a grand ole time from what I hear. Claire and I went to Target and I think we were both much happier to be there.
Happy Monday and here's to a good week!
