When Everyday Except Friday Feels Like Friday

I’m not sure what it is, but Brady and I have both been saying all week “Today feels like a Friday.” That can make for a pretty long week, I’m sure you can relate. Unfortunately, we learned this week that Bradys work van has a bunch of work that needs to be done on it. I had very high hopes for a family Saturday at the zoo, or somewhere else fun and relaxed. I would rather NOT spend a thousand dollars (literally) on a mechanic if Brady can repair it himself for a couple hundred instead, so while the answer is usually supposed to be “You can’t put a price on family time,” this time, you can. So we’ll lose our Saturday all together, which is sad, but we’ll still make the best of it and have a good day 🙂 Just a different kind of day than we were hoping for.

Because of this newfound information, our Sunday plans have changed as well. We were hoping to join our church for a Sunday morning spent at camp, and enjoy the camp music, camp food, and camp shenanigans in the afternoon. Now that would still be fun, but with the kids not being able to nap or rest anywhere at camp, we thought it would be nice if our day spent together as a family was a bit more relaxed, but still fun. SO! My hometown is having a grand opening of a new park, and its going to be quite an event, with food, bouncy castles, a train, the playground (obviously) and I don’t even know what else. I think we’ll meander our way out there on Sunday and check that out. Whether we stay or just keep walking, it will be good to get out without any real expectations or restrictions.

Knowing that tomorrow is finally Saturday, but won’t really be a Saturday, is a bit of a bummer for me. When I say Brady has a full day of work, I’m not kidding. So its not really a thing where the kids can run around and “participate” in the fixing. I am 110% confident that Brady will be happy to include the kids in stuff like that down the line, but even on his own, it would be pretty impressive if he got it all done in one day. So maybe next time, kidlets.

So while every other day this week has felt like a Friday, I’m thinking today is more like a Thursday. Does that make sense?

Next weekend will be sweet 🙂 Girls trip with Jerilee!!!!!
