Real Saturday

Yesterday, once again, felt like Saturday. We spent it with my mom! She came for a bit of the morning, and then she and I ducked into Saskatoon for some errands.

We moseyed through a couple of stores and just took our time. It was really really nice! We got back to the house mid afternoon, and everyone ate a huge taco supper! Tacos are always a bit hands-on, because as fast as you can make them, they eat them, so there is not sitting and eating for the adults assembling the tacos. We often just make a big taco salad, which is easier to serve them, but they vastly prefer to have soft tacos like we do. Wavy ate taco salad, and everyone else had wraps. All four of the other kids had two good sized wraps, loaded with meat, veggies, and some yummy toppings. I couldn’t believe how much they ate, but they all loved it. Solly kept saying “This is SUCH a nice supper.” I loved that. 

After the kids went to bed, the three of us played some Skipbo. Probably the longest, slowest, worst rounds of Skipbo ever, but we laughed through it. 😂 Two rounds of cards and almost two hours later, we called it a night. It was a really nice day. On top of all of the fun, Brady did a bunch of laundry and got started on taxes. Woot!

Of all the Saturdayish days this week, today is actually finally Saturday! We had baked oatmeal for breakfast, and I’ll be heading out for a lunch date and some shopping with Cher this afternoon. We have no deadlines or big goals to meet today. Just enjoying the actual Saturday. 

Thank you, Lord, for nicer weather, and the ability to let the kids run some energy off!
